Hi yue_imasaka,

indeed there is. It is set in a document property so if you go to File --> Document Properties --> Advanced --> Reading Options --> Binding you can change this. Be aware that this is a document property so if you save the document when closing this property will be saved inside the document. Probably what you want anyway...

hope that helps.
Best regards

Thanks, do I need the pro version?
I downloaded the latest free version (Build 312.1) and don't get same dialog in your screenshot.

I can't find "advanced":

Hi yue_imasaka,

no, the license is not needed for this, it's not a "pro feature". Are you definitely looking at the document properties?
File --> Document Properties --> Advanced --> Reading Options --> Binding

What do you see? Can you send a screen shot?
Best regards

Hi yue_imasaka,

I must apologize for my obtuseness...

I did not realize you are using the Viewer and not the Editor. The Viewer is no longer being developed. It never had this feature. If you want it you will need to move on to the Editor.

Sorry for that.
Best regards
