Split Screen

Split screen lets you open two items side by side — keep a character sheet or research note visible while you write the scene it belongs to.

Using split screen

1. Open the first item as usual.
2. Open a second item in the split pane (via its sidebar action menu or the split-screen control in the toolbar).
3. Each pane scrolls and edits independently.

What you can open

Split screen works with:

• Manuscripts
• Entities (characters, locations, …)
• Notes

Typical uses

• Reference while writing — character sheet on one side, scene on the other.
• Rewriting — old chapter left, new draft right.
• Continuity checks — two scenes side by side.

Word counts stay in sync between panes, so edits in either pane are reflected immediately in your totals and writing goals.
