Set Okular to use Thunar

Hi,

Currently my Okular pdf application uses Dolphin file manager for opening/saving file dialogs. However, my preferred file manager is Thunar.

I would like to know how can I make Okular to use Thunar for file opening/saving dialogs. Kindly suggest.

ps: I use Okular for pdf commenting and markup. (though not a fan of KDE but I cant really see a better replacement for it.)

The Open / Save dialogs...? That's not Dolphin, that's Qt. It can't be changed.

I, too, use Okular (great application!) in a mostly GTK environment. I just use one nice theme for GTK2, GTK3, and Qt, so all of the applications I use look the some.

But the bookmarks used in the open/save dialog of okular is same as that of dolphin...Is that because dolphin is also based on Qt and they have shared settings?

Yes, Dolphin is made using Qt and shares the same "Bookmarks" settings.
