No, they work as they are supposed to work, moving the cursor's position 
to the beginning of the page, but not as I want it to behave because it 
centers the cursor position in the screen....

Well, I could live without it. I don't even know if it's a bug or I'm 
expecting it to behave in a wrong way.

When you only see one page at a time it's nice to see the end of the 
previous page and the beginning of the next one, but in big wide 
monitors (maybe up from 22") I find it easier to see them side by side. 
However when you're seeing the end of pages 1 and 2 and the beginning of 
pages 3 and 4, you are missing the beginning of page 2 and the end of 
page 3... which are much more important than the end of page 1 and the 
beginning of page 4.... you're only seeing one continuous page, while 
you could be seeing two.... I don't know if I'm expressing clearly what 
I mean.

In fact, I think that the way it scrolls could be better if advancing 
one page changed from 1-2 to 2-3, and then to 3-4, instead of going 1-2 
-> 3-4 -> 5-6 ..... something like sliding the pages horizontally. When 
you're working at the end of page 2, you could need the beginning of 
page 3, and when you're working at the beginning of page 3, you could 
need the end of page 2.

The "1-2 -> 3-4 -> 5-6" could be kept as the behaviour of the book view, 
which only puts the page 1 on the right and visually merges the pages, 
but behaving in the same way. What do you think?

Thank you for your patience :)

Paco
