Hi :) Side-by-side is fairly easy on Win7 and Ubuntu 12.04. Not sure about others but it's got to have originated somewhere and is probably on the cards elsewhere. Not sure about synchronised scrolling though, that part sounds like a good item for a feature-request / bug-report.
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Bug_Report So, in Ubuntu 12.04 and Win7 just grab the first document's window and drag it to the far left as though you are dragging it off-screen. When a weird shadow fills half the screen let go. Whatever size and shape the windo had been it now fills half the screen. Do the same to the 2nd document's window but drag it to the right. Errr i choose left first just because it feels more comfortable to me. If you try to drag it off the top of the screen then the window tries to maximise. Of course you could use Alt Tab to flick between any windows on the workspace you are on and that can be a good way to compare quickly. Most Gnu&Linux distros also let you flick between different work-spaces quickly so changes jump out at you that way too. Windows users probably aren't familiar with the spinning cube (which i can never get to work). Of course Ubuntu kinda lost that quick flick between workspaces in 11.04 using Unity (unless i'm missing a key-combo (which is highly likely)) Regards from Tom :) >________________________________ > From: Dr. R.
