Scrolling multiple pages

[Devonboy78]

When scrolling through documents with multiple pages, the page counter at the bottom of the screen doesn't update as you scroll, only when you click on text on a page. This makes it difficult to know which page you are scrolling over. Far better if the page counter could be updated automatically as you scroll

Thanks for your post. I have forwarded this improvement suggestion to our product management.

A word processor application has not the behaviour of a book or a PDF viewer, where the current page is shown.
TextMaker shows the page of the caret position and also MS Word does.

I think, the behaviour is correct like it is.

Word doesn't work that way, either. LibreOffice Writer does. Apple Pages (the on-line version) doesn't provide any indication of page. I'd say it's a toss-up which way is "better."

The idea of any product is to make it easy and logical to the user, in other words, a common sense approach. So, if you are scrolling through 100 pages and the page counter doesn't update, does that make sense? Does that make it easier for the user? Textmaker should stand out from other word processors on the market, so yes, it should auto update in my opinion.

When you drag the scrollbar, there is a tooltip showing the "current" page with "current" meaning the scroll position. So you have that there.

The status bar shows the page of the caret.
