Split windows

Post by deeptikorwar »

Is there an option to split a lengthy topic into two parts for easy editing. I want to be able to look at the content in the top part while writing for content in lower half.

Regards,
Deepti

I generally look at the output on one screen while I'm writing in the other. If you only have one screen, you can stack the two in Restore mode. I tried using the Preview feature instead (to avoid having to build), but that locks the editor.

Thank you very much. The Restore mode would work well for me.

Hi Kwag,

I've already submitted a feature request asking for the Preview as to be non-modal (so you can leave that open, and carry on in the editor). Often, as I look at the preview, I see things I want to fix in the editor. I sometimes end up saving it as an Acrobat file, closing the preview, then opening the saved copy, so I can refer to it. That shouldn't be necessary. :-(

Perhaps you'd like to submit a feature request too?

I think this is valid as I've had a similar dilemma. I've submitted a feature request too.
