Tabs and windows
Split View
Two pages in one window, side by side or stacked. The split stays one item in the sidebar.
This page is a first draft. It may change before the public beta.
Keep the docs next to the code review, or the spec next to the design.
Right-click a tab, choose Add a pane, pick a second page from the command bar, drag the divider, then change the orientation.
Make a split
Choose Add a pane from a tab's menu, the View menu, the Library's Split View menu or the command bar. The new pane opens the command bar so you can pick its page; dismiss it and the pane closes again.
Work in a split
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
| Focus other pane | Moves the focus to the other page |
| Swap panes | Swaps the two pages |
| Change split orientation | Side by side or stacked |
| Close pane | Closes the active pane. Its tab stays in the sidebar. |
Drag the divider to resize the panes. None of these has a default key; you can add them in Settings → Shortcuts.
The sidebar highlights a split's tabs as one group, and each space remembers its own split.
