In Full Screen Mode, scrolling from page to page is always disabled (when one reaches the end of a page there is always a jump to the next).

How can I enable scrolling in Full Screen?

And how do i set it by default?

Hi, although the function is directly not available, there is a workaround for that. You go to full-screen mode and enable auto-scroll by Ctrl+Shift+H and then press escape.

What works for me is a tap with two fingers on the screen when it is in full-screen mode. However, I couldn't find any setting to make this default.

YES! THIS! This works! 

 

Unlike the answer up above that did not answer the question lol. Thank you! This is absolute genius.

 

Adobe, please fix this. Nobody likes that auto jump crap. I am using a touch screen which is supposed to imitate real life objects (like sliding a paper up with my finger) and when it just instantly jumps at the bottom of each page you feel like you just took some acid or something and you're losing your mind.

 

Please enable continuous scrolling for full screen mode.

You can't enable scrolling in Full Screen mode.

  • In Full Screen mode you can do this: In Organize Pages, set More > Page Transitions to AutoFlip (or just spacebar through the document)

Or

  • Choose View > Page Display > Enable Scrolling
  • Choose View > Read Mode to clear the clutter
  • Choose View > Page Display > Automatically Scroll
    Control the speed with the numbers on the Numeric keypad.


  • Optional: In Zoom, choose Reflow and also choose a higher zoom level, then Scroll.

You can set the Initial View for scrolling in individual files in File > Properties:

You can set preferences in Acrobat > Preferences > Page Display for files that have not been set the first way. (Edit > Prefs on Windows.)

Yes, I have been using Read Mode because of that, but I don't like that it exits automatically when I left-click an empty space.

I preferred Full Screen Mode because it does not.

Is there a way to disable this click exit feature in Read Mode?

Hi

I just went to View > Read Mode and it did not exit when I clicked the left mouse button.

I also enabled Automatically Scroll and clicking did not stop that, either.

If you want to use Full Screen mode, use the spacebar or arrows or mouse or Return key to go to the next page. Or turn on Full Screen Navigation in Preferences > Full Screen to get navigation buttons every time you are in Full Screen.

No, the Heads Up Display (HUD) can't be customized. Feature requests can be made to the engineers here:
