Bug Description

when using evince in dual-view (two pages visible) is there any way to change the phase? When viewing sheet music for example, if the PDF begins with page one, the first view will show only page one, then pages two and three, but if the music itself is spread across pages one and two, without a phase-adjust we cannot view those two pages together. The same issue will apply to other two-page spread documents where the pages in the PDF are out of phase with the printed edition (eg if the front matter is not all included)

if this isn't already included, can this feature be added? and if it is included, can the option be put somewhere on the menus so it is apparent?

Upstream report was closed "RESOLVED NOTABUG" on 2013-02-17
Required functionality existed using options already available.

Unsure where options were on old interface but in the new
interface the options are displayed on the "View options" menu
and this meets the request of the reporter. Closing as fixed.
