I recently switched from Debian to Arch. Now I have a newer version of zathura, which displays the pages continuously. For poppler as well as mupdf, I need the discrete display mode. Is this fixed now? I can't find an option to change this behaviour.

7The current accepted solution is not good enough for me. So if someone knows how to not display the pages continuously, I am interested. This is interesting in particular with the full-screen mode for a presentation. I don't want part of the next slide to be shown if my screen has the bad ratio. – Maxime Nov 08 '13 at 15:39

How about f5 which will start the presentation mode? – pranphy Jul 16 '18 at 18:52

You can use the "best-fit" mode and use Pageup + Pagedown (or map k,j) to jump to the previous or next page.
Does that help?

3I just want to add that this answer does not work when viewing a "landscape" pdf (i.e. a pdf file with pages that are wider than they are tall) in a "portrait" window (i.e. a window that is taller than it is wide). In this situation, "best-fit" will still show "page bleed" i.e. you will see the preceding/following pages above/below the page that you want to see. – jaimet Feb 26 '20 at 22:41

There is a workaround. If you set the page padding to a large number, you will not see the previous and following pages; for example:
:set page-padding 300
Navigate with shift+J and shift+K.
The position of the document within the window is not centered, though :-(

As @pranphy mentioned in the comments, you can go to the presentation mode by pressing F5. Worked for me pretty well. By the way, to use jk navigation in this mode you need now to press Shift + [j,k].
