In the definition of update_chrome_visibility, also in shell/ev-window.c. To: gtk_application_window_set_show_menubar (GTK_APPLICATION_WINDOW (window), !presentation & toolbar) To the end of the definition of ev_window_view_cmd_toggle_toolbar in shell/ev-window.c and change: gtk_application_window_set_show_menubar (GTK_APPLICATION_WINDOW (window), !presentation) In addition to the above patch, you would need to add: gtk_application_window_set_show_menubar (GTK_APPLICATION_WINDOW (ev_window), !toolbar) The menu-bar will not be hidden, which may or may not be what you want. The patched evince will have the option of hiding the toolbar with Ctrl+h.

To install elsewhere, for example to avoid having to use sudo, use. configure make sudo make install to install the patched evince to /usr/local/.

Luckily, these patches can still be manually applied (copy-pasting the code) to evince 3.18, as found in Ubuntu 16.04.

Direct links for 3.12, the contemporary master branch and 3.14. Working patches were provided (by Reinis Danne) in the GNOME bug report, but they were not accepted. The relevant bugs (ubuntu-specific and upstream) are here: It seems that the (otherwise very useful) Ubuntu-specific patches returning a normal menu-bar and normal location of the toolbar, break the auto-hiding behaviour, exacerbating the problem. Unfortunately, for evince as packaged in Ubuntu (14.04 and 16.04), even that is not possible.

In vanilla evince, in full-screen mode, the toolbar autohides, which is somewhat helpful, if not entirely sufficient (semi-intelligent behaviour never does exactly what you desire, plus it would be very convenient to be able to hide the toolbar not in full-screen mode as well - arguably that is when the screen-space savings are particularly important). Hiding the toolbar is not possible in evince either in Ubuntu 14.04 or 16.04, nor in upstream/vanilla evince (unmodified by Ubuntu), though if you're desperate, you can patch the source and recompile.
