Split screen lets you scroll sections of the code editor independently of each other. This feature is especially helpful when you are editing different parts of the script at once, or viewing one part of a script while editing another.
•Horizontal splitter divides the screen into two horizontal panes:
•Cross splitter divides the screen into four panes:
For two vertical panes, cross-split the screen and then close the horizontal split:
•Split panes scroll independently.
•Each split pane has its own column ruler.
•If you edit a line in a split pane of a file, the edit is effective in all split panes of the file. (It is two views of the same file; not two files.)
