QUESTION:
How can I split the screen in Code Explorer horizontally and vertically? How do I make them get back to normal?
ANSWER:
First, make sure you have the 'Allow horizontal splitting' and 'Allow vertical splitting' options of the editor checked. To do that:
- Select Tools | Configure Environment
- Select Editor tab
- Click on 'More Editor Preferences'
- Select Misc tab
Those options are only accessible when 'Show horizontal scrollbar' and 'Show vertical scrollbar' are checked -- these are also displayed under Misc.
When those options are checked the scrollbars have a small rectangle to the left (on the horizontal scrollbar) or at the top (on the vertical scrollbar) of one of the arrows. Double click on top of those rectangles and the windows will split.
To bring the windows back to normal, double-click on the dividing column (vertical split) or line (horizontal split). See the attached image.
