I literally just changed this off of that view mode! We have a number of documents that we are launching this with, and we wanted to showcase a number of different view modes.

LOL, your usernames are different from the original poster, but I'm guessing a few fellows from scribd HQ are monitoring this thread. =)

Thanks for the responses! I'm assuming then that the default viewmode will change depending on the document (ex. an e-book will default to 'book', and a pptx doc will default to slideshow)?

I will also 2nd the request for keyboard shortcuts as suggested below. Maybe activate page-up & page-down in full screen mode.

As also mentioned already, page thumbnails would be great.

Yes we will do some detection based on document type for the default view mode.

With regards to default viewmodes, that's working for iPaper and is coming soon for the HTML5 viewer.

Go ahead and upload documents in any formats supported by Scribd ... they'll be added to our conversion queue and appear as HTML 5 documents when ready.
