Horizontal view (as alternative to vertical)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

There are cases when horizontal stacking of the pages side by side (insted
of vertical) seems to be the most natural.

One such case is musical scores. All notation software "page view" modes
stack the pages horizontally, when you prepare musical pages on the music
stand for avoiding page turns, you put them side by side.

"horizontal mode" would be a great alternative to the current "vertical
mode" in FlexPaper!

I finally found the source :-)

And this was exactly what I wanted to change - to horizontal mode. I guess 
you'd know
how to do it, I did it like this:
Around line 539 in Viewer.as, instead of 
_displayContainer = new com.devaldi.controls.FlowVBox();

I create a FlowHBox class (stemming from HBox...) and use that instead. It 
works! But
somehow, only the first two pages are actually rendered. All other pages are 
white.
How come...

I also found out that if I play around with the zoom feature, I can get a few 
more
pages to render. I guess there's some code somewhere that tries to figure out 
what
pages are in view, and only chooses to render the contents of those.

This is a very good idea, what is the complete change of code in viewer.as that 
you used jonny?

I ended up not using this library as is, I wrote a whole new application, 
however borrowing some ideas from flexpaper. The main difference is my app does 
only show one page at once, and you use prev/next buttons instead of dragging.

This requests is only fixed when using Flash version. When using htm4 or 5, 
what can we do to have an horizontal layout?
