Page mode #133

Open dpo opened 8 years ago

dpo commented 8 years ago

I use pdf-view from the latex-plus package to preview documents, and it's working very well!

By default, PDFs are open in "continuous" mode, where I can scroll through the pages. I'm wondering if it's possible to open a document in "page" mode, i.e., one page at a time. The use case is a Beamer presentation with items being revealed on the slide at each new page. Continuous mode somewhat spoils the suspense (but also makes it hard to keep track when authoring).

Thanks!

Hi, @dpo 👋 -- thanks for opening an issue! That's not possible currently, but it's a really neat idea. :zap: I don't think I'll have time to work on this in the near future, so if you or someone else wants to try and implement this -- I'd be happy to review a pull request.

A simple next/previous page function works quite well for me. You may want to manually zoom the slides to display only 1 page on screen though.
