[Feature Request] Set Reading Direction per series.

[iacoviola]

I'd love to be able to set a custom reading direction for each series I'm reading. If a reading direction isn't set for a specific series, it could fall back to the default reading direction configured in the app settings.

For example, I usually prefer reading comics using the Webtoon reading direction, but for some series I prefer reading by swiping. Being able to set the reading direction on a per-series basis would be very useful.

KMReader already reads the reading direction directly from the server-side series settings.

You can change it from the series detail page: open the series, use the menu in the top-right corner, then choose Edit. The reading direction field is available there.

Yeah, I know but that changes the series metadata on the server.
Ideally I’d like to have a toggle which only changes the reading direction for the client.
It’s really specific, I know.

I don't quite understand the use case for a separate client-only per-series reading direction.

In Komga, the series reading direction metadata is already the per-series setting intended for reader behavior, and KMReader uses it directly for that purpose. The app-level reading direction is only the fallback/default, or a forced override when the user wants one global client preference.

Adding another local per-series setting would duplicate the same concept and make the precedence between server metadata, local override, and global default less clear. So I don't think this is something I want to add unless there is a more concrete case where the server-side series reading direction cannot represent the desired behavior.
