Do the Splits! See 2 Different Parts of the Window!




Do the splits!

Sometimes it is useful to be able to view the beginning of a document as well as the middle or end so that you can compare the content, formatting, etc. This is easily accomplished by splitting the Window. 




1.    From the View tab, in the Window group, choose Split.



2. Your mouse pointer will now have the split (which appears as gray bar with a double arrow), attached to it. Simply click where you want to split the Window into two, generally somewhere near the middle. You can move the split later if you wish!
 
The Window will now be divided into two separate panes, each having individual scroll bars and zoom settings!


 
You can move the split by clicking and dragging it with your mouse, or double click the split to remove it.

OK - Now that you are convinced this is a useful view, here is the shortcut!
