            Bug ID: 514610
           Summary: Add reading direction toggle to main menu
    Classification: Applications
           Product: okular
      Version First 25.04.2
       Reported In:
          Platform: Debian stable
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: florine at fwdekker.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Under "Settings > Configure Okular... > General" there is the setting "Right to
left reading direction". When enabled, this option swaps pages when view mode
is "Facing pages".

I think this option should also be made available in the main menu, as "View >
View Mode > Left to right page order", placed directly underneath the option
"Continuous".

My motivation for adding the toggle in the main menu is that the reading
direction depends on the document, so I want to be able to quickly change the
reading direction whenever I open a document. On some days, I will change this
settings several times, because I read both English documents and Japanese
manga. Entering the "Settings" dialog each time is cumbersome, and feels
strange, because I associate the "Settings" dialog with persistent general
preferences, rather than with short-lived per-document preferences.
