Hi,
This fairly simple change does exactly what I want- preserves the current
rotation on a file refresh. It takes the rotation of the current page and
applies that rotation to all pages of the refreshed document- if you have
documents with different applied rotations for individual pages then this
won't be right (but could be easily fixed). The cost is quite trivial and
shouldn't cause any interference with the current behaviour- but perhaps it
could be hidden in a new preference.
regards,
