How can I enable Two Page view?

To see two pages side by side, turn your iPad to Landscape (with Page Mode set to Automatic) or set Page Mode to Double under Settings → General → View Settings. On Mac, choose View → Two Pages (⌘+2).

iPad

Turn your device sideways (Landscape) and Scriptation automatically switches to two-page view. Turn the device back to Portrait to return to one page.

💡 TIP: You can still pinch and zoom in two-page view.

If your iPad didn't automatically convert to two-page mode when turned sideways, Scriptation is set on single-page mode. Here's how to switch it back:

Tap the three-dot menu (⋯) at the top right, then select Settings;
In the Settings modal, go to the General tab;
Under View Settings, set Page Mode to Automatic.

💡 TIP: Want two pages all the time, even in Portrait? Set Page Mode to Double instead of Automatic.

📝 NOTE: If your iPad still isn't adjusting to two-page view, quit Scriptation, restart your device, and re-open the app.

Mac

The fastest way to switch is from the menu bar: go to View → Two Pages (keyboard shortcut: ⌘+2).

💡 TIP: You can also set Page Mode to Double in the Settings modal (three-dot menu (⋯) → Settings → General tab) to keep two-page view active across all your files. See An Overview of the Settings Menu for the full walkthrough.

Changing which pages appear together

By default, the first page displays on its own as a cover page and the remaining pages pair up after it. To pair page 1 with page 2 instead, turn on Disable cover page under Settings → General → View Settings.

📝 NOTE: Two-page view shows two pages at a time and advances a full spread with each page turn.
