Split view of a single file

Post by Gibbon1 »

A coworker of mine was complaining that codelite doesn't have split view.

Googling lead me to this issue which seems to indicate that it wasn't easy to implement because of issues with how tab worked in wxwidgets.

However last comment says that wxwidgets now has support for split tabs.

Hi Eranif, Love your work.

I've seen for a while there is no split view, and you've reccomended deteach from editor.
Is there a possiability to add a "detach a copy" so that the original code file can still be in the original tabbed window and you can have a detached copy of the same file in the seperate window? This will help when working on large code files so you're not constantly scrolling up and down trying to find your place again. Bookmarks helps also, but have a second copy you can reference in another window would be great. Thanks for your time.

Actually I might have jumped the gun without reading
https://github.com/eranif/codelite/issues/1179

Which shows you implemented a split window. I'm in version 12.0 but for the life of me, I can't find where I can split the window in the editor or menu.
The issue was posted back in May, so I figured it should be in the build by now correct?

Awesome, I'll pull that one down and take a look.
