Please add horizontal scroll locking

[GoogleCodeExporter]

DJvuDroid had a feature to turn off horizontal scrolling. This is missing in 
VuDroid. Please add it as it is helpful for reading a zoomed in page.

Well this is an enhancement request not a defect, but I didn't find where I can 
change its type. Sorry !

Horizontal scrolling is a great idea!

I would like to suggest an additional refinement:  It is possible to have 
separate horizontal scrolling lock (position) for odd and even numbered pages?  
I have come across pdf files (often books) with different margin for odd and 
for even pages; even with the good old pdfdroid I have to reset the scroll lock 
every time I move to a new page.

MANY THANKS!

I'd like to suggest that it be as "soft" horizontal lock. What I mean with that 
is, if user scrolls mostly vertically, it wouldn't scroll horizontally, but if 
horizontal move is grater than a tolerance margin, then horizantal move would 
be unlock, but just while the user still holds the touch.

This is the most effective way I can imagine this feature, as it would be 
tottaly transparent, you don't need config options, users don't need to bother 
trying to find where to lock or unlock, it just work, if he tryes to move and 
he sees that it's only moving vertically, i think that it's automatic to anyone 
to try to move horizontally a little bit more, and then it works.

I've seen implementations with "hard" lock, like with ezPDF, and it is really 
frustrating when you are reading a document mostly scrolling vertically but 
time to time you need to check some thing scrolling horizontally, and every 
time you need to click at least three times to get to the unlock option on the 
menu..

That's just my 2 cents, and I don't think it would be hard to implement this 
feature this way.

Kind regards,
