And, actually, you can have 6(?) files/views open at once. 'course you need a big screen to make all 6 big enough to be able to be practical.
Once you have set up the split screen(s) - if you maximize one of them into Legacy's main window, you can get back to the split screen by clicking the RESTORE icon that's on the SECOND row in the top right corner. (The main RESTORE icon in the very top right - if you hover over it the pop-up says "restore down". The second row restore - if you hover over it the pop-up says "Restore Window"). And Legacy apparently honors the MS-Office (Windows?) standard of CTRL-F6 to switch between "split screens". Not real fast, but it does work in Legacy. (On my screen it is having some "repaint" issues when I use CTRL-F6 - but that could be my video drivers for that big screen.)
