Also his comment in Issue 19292 in Thu Jan 15 16:28:32 +2009. According to developers, it will be done, and there's already a roadmap - tabbed windows. I'd just ask a milestone and a higher priority. IMHO, the milestone is needed because no major upgrade makes sense without this feature - indeed, this feature will be the killer upgrade. The higher priority would just be more suitable, since this feature is badly needed. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I have no idea what is in the minds of those developers, and how the voting system works.

It _is_ in Calc, however, complete with the freeze frame option. And it works very nicely there. So it seems to me that the code is already there. It's just a matter of copying it over to Writer or letting Writer have access to it, or however it works. The point is, the code has already been written. [/quote] What I would like to see in Calc (if this issue is not limited to Writer): I would like to have a possibility that New Window and Arrange (horizontally, vertically, tiled, etc) gives me two windows for the same .ods file with the option to work on one sheet in one window *and* any other sheet (from the same .ods file) in the other window. Split or Freeze frame doesn't allow for working on a choice of sheets. I currently open a new window, size it, and position it manually. I have even got OpenOffice to remember the size and position of the second window. So for me the only drawback is the loss of a couple of rows devoted to tool bars, etc. If this could be done in OpenOffice, I'd gain these rows. (No, not everyone has mega screens and if one of the aims of OpenOffice is to attract new users, please, please introduce this feature.) Now to see where I cast my vote ***in favour*** of this added functionality. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I use the two windows alternative all the time, but it's not enough. I'd like to use the two windows AND split screens together. Because I often work with several documents, and at several points within those documents, simultaneously, I have a strong need for both. I also lack the programming skills to bring this feature to life. My plight is that of an impoverished poet, not a prosperous programmer.

They are linked so that a change in one affects the other, so it is basically what is needed, only a little of a pain to work with. There is wasted space due to multiple window menu lines, but when extra menus are turned off most space can be recovered. It is a little better than Word in that you can open as many splits and desired so you can be looking at lots of different points in a document.

Thank you for the comments. IMHO, mba's roadmap is a good way to go - if I got it right, first the split screen (with any reasonable number of splits and files), then tabs on top of it. It's how I see it: split screen, both for single and multiple files is the one enhancement to get, prior to anything else except bugs. This is what will bring OOo ahead of competitors - other stuff is peanuts compared to split screen. Going to the practical side: what is needed for this to move on? Programming skills?

Also, my suggestion is we should go ahead and implement a split screen in a single document first. Then we move on from there to implement the multiple tab. If no one write the first line of code, it can never be done. Just get it moving. Please and thank you. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

But, if I got it well, the first goal is to have something as a window manager inside OOo, allowing multiple files and/or instances of the same file to be arranged in a single window. This seems to be what Issue 19292 is about and what this issue is becoming. So, in the end, both issues will become the same stuff. If I'm correct, I keep the suggestion of closing either issue, merging talks into the other, so that the discussion is unique. Another possibility is to close both issues and open a fresh one, with the clear idea in mind. Besides unifying the discussion, we also get rid of the garbage collected over the years, making it easier and more objective. My only intent with this is to end the split discussion (pun intended). Then, we move on to the ideas themselves. Thanks - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

It may certainly be possible to combine two issues, but I would worry that this one would get glossed over by the developers, as it has for so long. I cannot state this strongly enough: the split document view is the only feature that's keeping OO from being widely adopted by the education market. I just spent $10,000.00 renewing my Microsoft licensing for my district- this is money I could have spent in better ways if I could have deployed Open Office; some of that money (or all of it for all I care) could have been spent on OO development- an offer I made quite some time ago with no response. The offer is still there for an ambitious developer- you implement the feature, I am willing to pay for it. I can't see why this seems so difficult. F/OSS is a great thing, except when development stalls: then it sucks. OO is a great product, and kudos to the developers who are working to make it better. Please, though- we've been waiting for this split-document view option for ages now in education.

Issue 19292 applies to all applications, and if I read it right would give OOo.org the ability to view multiple documents within the same application window. As a matter of fact I use this feature all the time in Excel! This issue, 19291, which I am commenting on only applies to Writer, and would give Writer functionality which already exists in Draw and Calc. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

The Calc functionality is not enough - IMHO. You can split the view, but you can have only one selection and the two parts can only be scrolled together. In a Writer document I wouldn't accept that - IMHO both parts must be scrollable independently. And I want to select something in one view without losing the cursor in the other.

Calc has its own, specific implementation of the split feature. And I think instead of implementing a second, specific solution we should aim for a generic one. Meanwhile I think we should do it in a similar way as in StarOffice 5.2 (IIRC this was mentioned here in an earlier comment) and this means: have TABS(!) in OOo and allow to have more than one view to one or several documents inside of one tab. IMHO this will be the most versatile, elegant and useful implementation. This is my final goal, and any in-between solution should be in line with it. Here's a small summary how that should be done: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Architecture/To-Dos#Framework_Improvements - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I have no idea how it should be implemented from a programming perspective but the outcome solves more than a few problems. While some many not care for the tab metaphor, it is where many productivity app GUIs are currently heading. As long as we don't lose the split view within the same document feature, it adds benefits and solves the original issue as well. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

But for me it's important to have a solution that is generic and that fits into the current UI (tabs only in the desktop's task bar) as well into a possible future UI with tabs in OOo.

We can solve this issue here and 19292 with and without tabs, the concept/roadmap in the wiki I pointed to covers that all. There is no difference between having two views to two different documents or two views to one single document in one tab or task window (except that they will have different menu entries or other UI means to create them). But the arrangement of windows and the code to implement it will be the same. For this part of the feature it's irrelevant whether the two (or even more) views are part of a tab or a system task. Having tabs and a tab bar inside OOo gives an additional advantage: you can move view between tabs by DD on the tab bar. This is not possible with tabs in the system task bar. All people that have used StarOffice 5.2 might know what I mean: this was the coolest and most useful feature of the StarOffice desktop (that besides that was a very problematic feature). - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

The latter contains this Issue, so solving Issue 19292 will undoubtedly take care of both. I'm not sure that that's true. 19292 seems to request only a single split. I would hate for the developers to think that no one is asking them to think about implementing multiple splits. My model for this is Konqueror (from KDE), which allows you to make as many splits as you like, in both vertical and horizontal directions. The text editor I use allows this also (as, I bet, does emacs). It is unbelievable useful, especially on modern monitors that have so much space that one can easily use half a dozen splits productively. Of course, even a single split is far better than what we have now. But it sure would be nice if the general problem was coded, rather than just the 1-horizontal-split problem. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Issue 19292 says multiple files, without stating whether this is limited to two or not. The reported used two files as an example. I commented that the genererally mentioned workaround, resizing windows, is worse for more than two files. Anyway, it doesn't hurt to ask, right? I'll post this question there to get things clear. mba, just for myself to undertand that clearly: does your solution* predict a free number of splits and files?

This is the ONLY feature that is keeping us from switching to Open Office on all our Macintosh laptops, but it's a serious one. All of our teachers who use the laptops for their literacy improvement program have been trained by the experts to use the split screen as a literacy aid for students. Especially when working on 12 screens like our iBooks have, you cannot have two windows open- there's simply not enough real estate. Furthermore, it adds complexity to the task, and when you're working with Grade 4 students, that's the last thing you want! I assume that there's folks from Sun watching this thread: if you're out there, contact me, please. We are willing to contribute some serious financial support to get this implemented- as I said, we spend an astronomical amount of money on MS every year, and we'd just love to give some of it to you if you'll help us out here! I can guarantee you we're not the only ones in this situation as well- I went to a conference in the summer with over a thousand teachers and administrators from schools all over North America and the UK, many of them having the same kind of programs in their schools. A lot of them would love to switch to F/OSS, but they're kneecapped by lack of features that Microsoft has played up on. All we need is a simple horizontal split; when dragged downwards, both panes show the same document, but are independently scrollable. We don't need two edit points, or two cursors, or dual selection capabilities; just make it work exactly like Word 2004 for Mac and you've got a winner in the schools. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

The type of documents I work in are organized into three sections, all of which are edited simultaneously. The main section, the actual work itself, would take up the right half of my screen. The other two sections, both used for writing and keeping track of two or more different threads of notes, would be take up the left half of my screen and be split into two panes. Presently I have to muddle around with three separate windows, which is not very elegant. So I've added my vote for this issue. Hope it at least gets a milestone. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Split window of Writer It is for different views of one document. - Two or more split windows share one cursor mark and current positions. - Directly inserting or deleting letters in one split window reflects inserting or deleting letters in other split window(s) at the same time if viewed area is close to each other. - Typing Asian characters through input method works at the current position in one split window. No need to show candidates in other split window while a user is choosing one of the candidates proposed by the input method. - An action of selecting texts in one split window is shared in another split window or other split windows. - Current cursor position will be stored in a file and retained upon loading the file. New window of Writer It is for sharing one document with other users (normally one user) - Each window has own cursor mark and current positions. - Directly inserting or deleting letters in one individual window reflects inserting or deleting letters in other individual window(s) at the same time if viewed area is close to each other. - Typing Asian characters through input method works at the current position in one individual window.

OOo is a very complex application. Sometimes a patch does not address all facets and problems and either omitted important details, creates new bugs etc. Don't misunderstand me: we will try to do our very best to get all patches integrated we get (see e.g. http://blogs.sun.com/GullFOSS/entry/patch_integration). I just wanted to point out that getting patches does not mean that you always save a lot of time. Especially bigger features (like this one) usually aren't done in patches and if they are done we still need several weeks of work to get them integrated. A good example is issue 33737 where we already have invested 3-4 weeks of work for the integration and still are not done yet. If this issue isn't addresses in the next month or two, I will probably have some free time coming up and could do the fix myself. However, it's no use doing the patch is it's not going to be accepted. Of course if anybody wanted to work on this issue we will try to help. Working on something is the easiest way to make us shift our priorities. :-) See http://blogs.sun.com/GullFOSS/entry/why_all_issues_are_equal - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Let me dispute a couple ideas: Two or more split windows share one cursor mark and current positions When I need to edit a document seeing different parts of it simultaneously, I want to be able to copy/paste and drag/drop portions of the text from both panes (if we can call it this way). So there's the need of cursor mark and positions to be independent among views. An action of selecting texts in one split window is shared in another split window or other split windows. By the reason above, I think selections in one split window shouldn't be echoed in other(s). Current cursor position will be stored in a file and retained upon loading the file. I don't have much of an idea on how to deal with the file storing the positions, but I guess there's two possibilities: a)Electing one view (probably the first opened) as the main one and storing only the main view cursor position b)Storing positions and splittings in the file (this could get quite messy) In short, it would be split windows with the specs you wrote for new windows. It is for different views of one document What's your thought on merging this discussion with the quite similar issue 19292?

Could you try Window | Split and Window | Freeze panes on Excel? What you mention is somewhat similar to Freeze panes of Excel while my prior proposal is somewhat similar to Split of Excel. Maybe we can introduce both ideas in Writer as Excel does. 1. Start Excel. 2. Select a cell in the middle, center of window and choose Window | Split. Now you have 4 panes, split horizontally and vertically. 3. Select a cell in the right bottom pane and press Ctrl-right arrow and Ctrl-down arrow to move to cell IV:65536, most far from A1. 4. Now you can select a big area by selecting C3 in the left top pane and then selecting IT:65533 with holding a Shift key. That is an example of selection. A staring point of an area is displayed in one pane and ending point is shown in another pane. Freeze panes of Excel does not have a horizontal or vertical scroll bar for upper and left panes. When we try to introduce the similar feature in Writer, we can add scroll bars for them. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I don't have M$O... I moved to a better suite a couple years ago ;) But anyway, Calc also has Split and Freeze. I did what you suggested, and it's a great thing indeed. Freeze is also great (I use it several times). But what we're discussing here is two distinct, fully functional panes. By allowing the user to have independent cursor positions and eventual area selections, this feature becomes distinct of the current split and freeze. As I said, I guess the proposal here is to have the functions you mentioned for multiple windows, but viewed simultaneously in a single window. That is: one window shows multiple instances of a file (and/or multiple files, as in issue 19292), with independent full editing capabilities for each one. So I end up puzzled with 3 different ways of splitting data: 1.Freeze as in Calc. We cause a section to bond to the page limits, while the other scrolls freely. We have a single cursor and, therefore, only one selection. 2.Split as in Calc. We divide the data so the different portions scroll independently. Still a single cursor and selection. 3.Split as in M$O. We divide the window in more than one view, each one showing a different part of one or more files. Each pane has its own cursor and selection. I see both splits can be used in Writer. The Calc split would work this way: the user selects a point in the text, hits the funcion, then an horizontal or vertical (depending on the writing) divides the screen (or maybe only the text page), allowing each side to scroll and the cursor and selections to be shared between views. This would be quite useful and less space-hungry than the multiple page view. The M$O split would be like: the user opens the same file twice (or two different files) and asks OOo to divide the window, and voilá - you have two panes. Each one with fully independent cursors and selections and full editing capabilities. So one could drag and drop, compare, etc., between two different areas of the document or different documents. This is the killer feature requested, and can be done for all apps. One could, this way, copy from a spreadsheet to a text to a presentation, etc. What do you think?

In StarOffice you could open two windows for the same document and you still can do this in OpenOffice.org. The only additional functionality in StarOffice was that it could rearrange the windows to be in the same task window. But as this was possible only at a cost (lost system integration) that was removed in OpenOffice.org. For OpenOffice.org this needs to be done in another way. With the given resources we can implement such features only one by one. For 3.0 we chose two features we considered to be more important: improved notes and multiple page view. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Though I agree it's useful, I fully disagree it's more important than the split window feature. While the adjacent page view is an improvement (and, as such, welcome) of what we already have - Writer has a continuous flow view and OOo print preview can show multiple pages - and is aimed mostly at Writer (Impress at most), split windows is a full feature with a great impact on usability for all OOo applications. Also, given OOo application integration, if it's done as proposed in issue 19292 (which can substitute this one, IMHO), will permit simultaneous view and editing of different types of documents, such as text and presentations, for example. This completely beats what I had in my previous suite (M$O 97), while the multiple page view comes quite short of that. It seems the decision is already made, but I just want to make devs aware of my user point-of-view. In fact, this is the only feature I miss since I switched from M$O.

I guess that computer environment has been dramatically changed compared to 2003. This is my opinion. I do not currently need an idea of split-window, but will need much more other features. So I would like developers to spend time for enhancing and introducing other features. Why do I think so? I currently use 2560 x 1600 of LCD displays. With this environment, the area of window title, menu bar, tool bars, and status bars occupies less than 10% of height of display. I do not need to take care of the occupancy. I hate to use Window's like desktop environment such as GNOME or KDE, not to mention, Windows. I prefer a window manager fvwm2 that allows users have multiple virtual displays. Individual virtual displays lie side by side and thus a window of software can spread all over the displays. That means I have a 12800 x 8000 of virtual display with a setting of 5 x 5 virtual displays. Additionally, I apply focus-follow-mouse policy and auto-rise-window. I do not need to click some area of a window to change focus of window, just move cursor pointer on the desired window. The window, even it is behind the other windows, automatically rises up to the top. A window manager fvwm, predecessor of fvwm2, was available in the time of Windows 95. Windows-like desktop environment, however, has been dominating the PC markets for years, but I think such kind of poor environment leads much loss of productivity lasting for some decades. Sorry, those are somewhat off the topic. What I wanted to mention were: - Larger display, less demands of split-window. - Times goes, technology enhances, becoming easier to have a larger display. - Within a few years, most people would not take care of this issue. Actually, from a technical point of view, implementation of split-window in an application takes much efforts than leaving a control of two windows to the window system provided by OS such as Windows, Mac OS, and UNIX. Demands of this issue would be diminishing. But there would be something that i have not noticed. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

It's about proper editing of documents where one section refers to another or is related to it. It affects many things, from cutting and pasting to proper formatting. Two windows are nowhere near the same as a split window mode. And although your solution works for you, others, including me, would hate it. For me auto-focus is one of the worst features ever added to X. I don't want to get into an auto-focus debate here, so won't list my reasons but believe me, there are many people like me who simply hate it. And the other issue is that yes, you may use X. As it happens, so do I. But most people use Windows and OO competes with Office, so that's the target market. That's where nearly all the potential users are right now. Split window usage cannot be worked around successfully on M$ no matter what we may think of M$ Windows as a platform. Neither can it be worked around successfully on the Mac. There's 99% of the world's desktops immediately at a disadvantage to Office in the OO v.s. Office competition. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

It even endangers the data, because alternately editing the document in 2 or even 3 windows totally confuses OOo and one never knows which window is for real (I just re-tested with OOo 2.4). Besides operating two distant but related parts of a document there are other nice applications for multiple _synchronized_ (!!!) views on the very same part of a document: Having one non-print-layout view (better for typing and editing) and one _synchronized_ WYSIWYG view (to see what's being printed). As of screen sizes: You cannot assume large displays. I love my 24 1920x1200 screen in the office, and I know of developers with e.g. 3200x1200 dual screen desktops, but far over 50% of people work on laptops or cheap desktop PCs with 1024x768 usally, 1400x900 tops. During the last say 12 years, the average office PC resolution hasn't even completed the step from 1024x768 (17 CRT, 15 LCD) to around 1280x1024 (19 LCD) or 1400x900 (some 15 widescreen laptops). - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=19291 --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon May 12 18:33:01 + 2008 --- Thank you for the valued comments. Needs: 1) To refer to a different part of a document 2) To refer to a beginning and ending part of an area Measures: a) split-window b) two windows We are not required to choose one of them. We could incorporate both of them and leave users a chance to choose it. Specifications: = How to split a window = In horizontal writing, a window should be split horizontally into upper part and lower part. In vertical writing, a window should be split vertically into left part and right part. Word 2003 splits a window horizontally in vertical writing. It is really mess. Imagine that you are working on an English document, what do you feel if the window gets split vertically and both parts of window has a horizontal scroll bar. You should move it back and forth to see an entire line. If we try to introduce split-window, we should consider vertical writing, too. = Selection = To select a region, locate a cursor somewhere in the split-window A and then locate a cursor somewhere in the split-window B with holding a Shift key. Word 2003 does not work in such a way. An attempt of locating a cursor fails, but simply makes a focus changed to the target window. If we try to incorporate split-window, it would be better to take care of selection. = Short cut key = To switch window, somewhat better short cut key or key sequence might be needed. With Word 2003, an attempt of switching between split-windows by Alt-TAB fails. That short cut key brings us to other application's window. Is there any convenience short cut key already incorporated on Word 2003 or 2007? If we want to proceed this issue, we would need more user scenarios and discuss them and devise their solutions. We could refer to other software, but would not need to exactly mimic other software. For instance, specs of split-window of Word might be defined under the circumstances of small (800 x 600) screen in the 8 or 16 bit era. In comparison, we are currently living in 64 bit era with more than 1000 dot resolution screen, We do not need to follow such traditional, conventional, outdated, ... specifications. In addition, we should concentrate on what users and customers desire. User means those who use a software on a daily basis while customer means those who decide what software is chosen and give an approval of plan and/or budget. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Greater than that is pretty rare. Very little people use a good window manager. In fact, the vast majority have Windows installed. OTOH, few would have patience to do the managing themselves. I'd never use focus-follow-mouse for reasons beyond our discussion here. This could be taken care of by OSs in a few years, but we don't know how many (let alone the majority of users get the solution). We will have in the near future a solution which is not as good as what the competition brought over 10 years ago. I know split windows is not a simple solution and apologize for the 'me too' flooding. But what I really want is to have the reasons clear. For people like me, which I believe to be many, split windows is still the feature of choice. Best regards - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

With large wide screens vertical splitting absolutely can make sense even with horizontal writing. See gvim (aka vim-gtk) and xemacs. Selecting text the way you described would be nice, but not a necessary part of a new split window view. The split window implementation of M$ Word 2000 would satisfy most of us, despite the imperfections you mentioned. That's a general remark: Sometimes a feature is better in than out, even if it is incomplete, experimental, looks awful, ... As of example applications, I can name some apps aside MSO: Word processors: + KWord (split windows and multiple windows, synchronized) + AbiWord (synchronized multiple windows) + StarOffice in late 1990ies ;-)) Text editors (unfair to compare with them, but still): + vi in all variants + emacs in all variants + nedit Top list of apps not providing real split windows: - OOo - KDevelop 3.x (Feature scheduled for KDevelop 4.x) - Eclipse 3.x (Eclipse Bug 8009, Feature has chances for 4.x; same painful discussion there) - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Also, selecting a display area and a cursor position should be retained indefinitely as the window goes out of focus. No shift-click is necessary as far as simple editing is concerned. But, since you use an advanced window manager and I don't, you are probably aware of more tricks than I do. Pls share them so we can sync our thoughts. Shortcut key: what about Ctrl-Tab? This is the common shortcut used in most Windoze apps. On the issue of splitting horizontally or vertically and horizontal or vertical writing: well, the customer can decide whether to split vertically or horizontally depending on his needs. I don't think this is a real problem. Many thanks. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

If so, why was it decided that this feature had value in Calc and Impress/Draw but not Writer?
