   Great, thanks for filing that. We will look into better presentations of the bottom toolbar.

   I posted this on the site, but figured it might be of interest here as well: -- Trevor, Thanks for the thoughtful post. You captured some of the interesting aspects and obstacles we had to overcome in order to realize the HTML based viewer

   It's really quite atypical, but all things considered, that problem is quite difficult to get around in this case. We do, however, plan to put significant effort into optimizations.

   Sure thing; the view mode switcher is in the middle of the toolbar at the bottom. Select slideshow mode from there and you're set.

    Hmm, that first problem should not be the case. I'm unable to reproduce it in my browser, but we will look into it. What exactly do you mean by the nav at the bottom looking like spam? I assume you are referring to the sticky toolbar? Als

    Actually, they do. It is unfortunate, but flash is the best way to access the clipboard from the browser. There are some slick implementations that make the use of flash less evident, but if you use something like flashblock, you will sur

    Yeah, we need to fix that. I imagine we will take care of that soon.

    There is keyboard support in some of the view modes. We will be adding more in the near future.

    We will be implementing more and more advanced features such as hotkeys for various actions. These are the sorts of things we are anxious to hear suggestions for, so keep them coming.

    As an engineer on the project, things like this are amazing to hear. Thanks so much for the feedback!

    There is a lot going on under the hood, and we have put substantial work into optimization for things like scrolling through content. We know we can still do better, though, so expect to see things even more performant in the coming weeks!

    While working on the new interface at Scribd, SICP was one of our test documents - it looks great in HTML! http://www.scribd.com/documents/15556326/Structure-and-Inter...

    What problems are you having? We did tests on an iPad and created a rather sleek, lightweight version of the viewer for it.

    Thanks for the well-thought questions. Being as the web is all about content, there are many players and there is plenty of overlap. We do want to create a place where people want to publish their essays, poems, notes, etc. I too am a d

    That is great feedback. With an undertaking such as this, UX is definitely going to be a big issue. While we were careful and thoughtful in creating the current interface, we surely have plenty of work to do in terms of the overall experi

    A number of our engineers, particularly those who made this all possible, will be adding posts to our coding blog in the coming weeks. They should help kickstart any effort to render as we have. http://coding.scribd.com/

    That's a really interesting idea. Given our other view modes, I don't see why we could not do a horizontal scroll as well. I'll keep this in mind.

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

    We'll consider making that a preference, so you can prevent it from hiding.

    Can't reply to you directly axod, so I'll put it here. To better support fullscreen viewing and other setups, we still have some behaviors to figure out with those pop-out dialogs.
