Description

Steps to reproduce

(More desired than expected behavior) Utilize same left/right controls that files viewer uses for photos/videos.

(Excluding the rest of the info, as this is not an issue, but a feature request.)

Is this feature request a possibility? I understand from reading the initial issue submitted for this app to use nextcloud/viewer there may be limitations.

Research direction

Start by comparing the existing left/right controls in the Files viewer with the PDF viewer and the referenced nextcloud/viewer behavior. The work is done when opening a PDF from a folder allows navigation between multiple PDFs using those controls, with the viewer displaying the selected document.
