@naraesk I also have a registered copy and haven't run into this. If you don't re-enter your registration code, start masterpdfeditor and go to Help --> Register, does it say the copy is registered?

My suggestion for something to try:

  • Start masterpdeditor
  • Check to make sure it shows registered under Help --> Register
  • Deactivate
  • sudo pacman -Rns masterpdfeditor
  • {Reinstall masterpdfeditor using your preferred method}
  • Activate

If this doesn't fix the problem you'll need to take the issue up with code industry; I've found them to be fairly responsive.

I have to reenter my registration code everytime I restart the program. Otherwise it is just an unregistered version with watermarks etc. Is this a problem of the package? Is there a workaround? Thanks!

Minor release 5.6.42 now available.

Thanks. It was just a problem here with my config file. I updated to release 2 and with a new configuration file, all is well xfce x64. Thanks for a terrific release.

Turns out the patchelf make dependency in the previous version of this package was there to remove an RPATH entry from the executable which is incorrect for Arch-based systems (or likely any distro):

$ readelf -d masterpdfeditor5 | grep rpath
 0x000000000000000f (RPATH)   Library rpath: [/opt/Qt5.9.8/5.9.8/gcc_64/lib]

Because of system default shared library path settings this probably doesn't hurt anything, but it's also not necessary or useful, so removed.

@jrichard326 I'm not having this problem. Using the Mate DE, If I add Find, edit, redaction to the toolbar the changes persist across closing and opening the application and across different pdfs. I've experimented with several rounds of adding and removing toolbar elements and it seems to remember them every time. I do have a registered copy, but I deactivated it so that so that it was unlicensed and that didn't change anything. I recall the previous version had multiple toolbars and now I can't figure out how to add a second one, but everything seems to fit on the single toolbar, so maybe the developer did away with this feature. I prefer the minimalist interface anyway, so find this better.

Works for me perfectly on KDE Plasma. Builds/Starts fine, also toolbar modifications ARE persistent for me. 100%, THANKS!
