Hi,

I have poor eyesight, and often read PDF files zoomed in on a quarter of the 
screen.  If there were a keyboard shortcut to jump to the left or the right 
side of the page, or the top or bottom, I could read much faster, and with much 
less stress to my hand.

If it were deemed too obtrusive to become a default part of the application, 
I'd be happy to write my own AppleScript.  What I had in mind was something 
like the following four commands:
"tell application "Skim" set horizontal_scrollbar 0"
"tell application "Skim" set horizontal_scrollbar 1"
"tell application "Skim" set vertical_scrollbar 0"
"tell application "Skim" set vertical_scrollbar 1"

But after reading this:
https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/skim-app/index.php?title=AppleScript
and a lot of silly trial and error, I'm believe Skim does not make those 
variables -- whatever their true names -- available to AppleScript.  

If it did, that would be wonderful.

Best,
Jeff
