Split Screen is a feature in Realtime and Edit that allows you to divide the screen into two displays. You may want to use this feature so you can edit on one screen while watching your realtime scroll on the other. You can split the screen either horizontally or vertically. During realtime, when the screen is split horizontally, the bottom window remains stationary and the top window scrolls. When split vertically, the left window scrolls while the right remains stationary. You can use the scroll bar to move through the file in either display.
Split Screen Horizontally
- Using the mouse, move the pointer to the upper right corner of the Edit screen where the top portion of the Edit screen and the vertical scroll bar meet. The pointer will change to a double bar with up and down arrows.
- Once the pointer changes to the double bar, click and drag down. A gray, horizontal line will appear showing you the position of the of the split screen. When at the desired position, release the mouse button.
- To return to a single screen, click and drag the horizontal bar back to the top of the Edit screen.
Split Screen Vertically
- Using the mouse, move the pointer to the lower left corner of the Edit screen where the bottom portion of the Edit screen and the horizontal scroll bar meet. The pointer will change to a double bar with left and right arrows.
- Once the pointer changes to the double bar, click and drag to the right. A gray, vertical line will appear showing you the position of the of the split screen. When at the desired position, release the mouse button.
- To return to a single screen, click and drag the vertical bar back to the far left of the Edit screen.
