M3 / PR #3101: avoid stale organizer anchors and synchronize the active comparison gap choice across both panes through menu and control paths. Three regression tests fail before these fixes and pass after them. Document the gap helpers and test contracts.

# Continuous page display
|
|
|
|
> **Last updated:** 2026-10-18 · Viewer: optional page gaps.
|
|
|
|
To read pages as a continuous strip, open **View → Page display**, choose **Single page**,
|
|
turn **Continuous scrolling** on, and turn **Show gaps between pages** off. The Page display
|
|
button on the viewer rail opens the same choices. The command palette also offers
|
|
**Show gaps between pages** as a toggle.
|
|
|
|
Hiding gaps joins the displayed page edges and removes page shadows. It does not crop or
|
|
change the PDF: white margins already in a page remain. Pages of different widths stay
|
|
centered. In two-page view, it removes both the gutter within a row and the gap between rows.
|
|
|
|
For future documents, open **Preferences → Documents and view** and uncheck
|
|
**Show gaps between pages**. This default survives a restart. Existing documents retain their
|
|
current view; the per-document toggle does not change the preference for future documents.
|
|
|
|
Desktop launch options:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
pdfcraft --layout continuous --page-gaps off document.pdf
|
|
pdfcraft --default-page-gaps off
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The opt-in UI control channel accepts `set key=page-gaps value=off` for the active document
|
|
and `set key=default-page-gaps value=off` for future documents. Its `command` method accepts
|
|
`id=view.page_gaps`, and `state` reports `active.page_gaps` and `active.continuous`.
|
|
|
|
Revision history: 2026-10-17 — added local gapless-display controls and documentation.
|
|
|
|
In a side-by-side comparison, the gap setting applies to both panes. Changing it in
|
|
Organize Pages keeps your document scroll position when you return to the viewer.
