Thanks for that Sho.
This will do great, until a split-pane feature is available. Thanks for
your help on this.

If you follow my steps, you do
get multiple views on the same file which update in real time as you
type. This is the way that Eclipse is designed to work. If you like,
you can also tear off the view and
As far as I know, Eclipse does not support
split views out of the box, and while we could add it, there would be
significant work involved, which is why we decided to wait until a
later version to tackle this.

Thanks for that Sho,
Ideally, I would like to to operate as 2 separate views on the same
file.
This would allow me to make changes in working memory, and see the
changes in both panes. I feel that if I attempted your approach, only
one of the panes would represent the current working copy, and hence
would become out of date very quickly as code is edited.
For the moment, I am using dual monitors, with a plain text editor
"EditPlus" to view the second instance of the code, as it prompts me to
refresh when the code has been changed externally to EditPlus.
Is the lack of this feature something that is imposed by the Eclipse
base?
Thanks.

This isn't a perfect solution, but you can open up two separate editor
windows if you like.
1) Right click on the document tab and choose "New Editor"
2) Drag the tab of the newly created editor above (or below) the editor
area. You should get visual feedback that indicates that it will be
docked in a separate area.
Voila! Two views of the same document that can be scrolled separately.

Subject: [flexcoders] Flex 2.0 Feature Request - Code view splitter
Hi all,
Not sure where to put this, so I'm posting to the group in the hope
that
someone will intercept it.
I'm hoping that Flex Builder will eventually come with a code window
splitter, allowing you to view two parts of the same code file, in
separate "split" windows. This feature exists on applications like MS
Word, EditPlus, and a whole range of other applications that have a
window into the content being edited. This would be really useful
especially with a large caringorm framework, all your events defined at
the top, and the command initialization at the bottom, its a pain to
have to scroll up and down constantly to recall the event names.
Thanks.
Regards,
Graham Weldon
