Default PDF View Options?

Post by stburrow »

Is there a way to have BookEnds make a particular pdf view the default? When I work at home on a large monitor, I like to use two page continuous view, but BE seems to forget that setting and the custom look factor I selected when I look at another pdf that I had set the prior pdf to two page view.

That setting (via a right-click) is handled by PDFKit (the Apple API), not Bookends. So Bookends doesn't doesn't register the event. It's conceivable that Bookends could grab the status of the PDF when it's closed and apply it to the next PDF that's opened. I'd have to explore that.

In the next update (presumably 13.0.8) Bookends will remember the PDF page display setting when switching between references.
