DocView paging set to fit to page or to width in separate window frames

DocView paging set to fit to page or to width in separate window frames

[Van L]

Hello,

I have two frames each with their own window viewing a DocView buffer on the one PDF page.

The left frame is landscape oriented and when I page down I’d like the fit to width view remain unchanged.

On the right, I have a portrait orientation. When I page down I’d like the fit to page setting stay.

What happens at the moment is random switching between fit to page or to width when I page down.

I use the following keys to correct the view 

  P	doc-view-fit-page-to-window
  W	doc-view-fit-width-to-window

and would like the setting to separately stick for each frame’s window. Is there a way tu?

Do you mean an X-window, or do you mean a buffer?

What kind of buffer is opening when you view the documentation as 
a PDF
file. Are you using the generic PDF-to-image conversion tool that 
is
built into emacs, or are you using an extension?

The frames are on the Mac’s Finder window manager. 
I mean the PDF page as PNG image in a window of an Emacs frame.

The toolchain leaves [(DocView)] on the modeline and 
should be using the builtin Emacs infrastructure.

I’m after a variable that configures the width or page viewport size for next paging. Normally, I use buffer and indirect buffer for text to display at different text scale factors. I’m wanting that for PDF reading.
