Is it possible to view .ino, .cpp, and .h tabs simultaneously using 2.0.0 rc6?
They should appear in the IDE tabs, just click on one to see it. If you want all visible on the monitor at one time you will need to use an external editor that will support that.
Hi @bob011 . Thanks for taking the time to give the Arduino IDE 2.0.0 release candidate a try!
The request for the "split editor" capability that would allow you to view the contents of multiple tabs (or even multiple copies of the same tab) is being tracked by the Arduino IDE developers here:
opened 07:17PM - 13 Mar 22 UTC
type: enhancement
topic: code
### Describe the request
Allow splitting the editor into multiple panes.
🙂… It is helpful to reference the contents of another file or section of the current file while working.
### Describe the current behavior
There is only a single editor pane.
🙁 You must scroll up and down through the file to reference the contents of another section of the current file.
🙁 You must switch back and forth between tabs in order to reference the contents of another file.
### Arduino IDE version
692f29f
### Operating system
All
### Operating system version
All
### Additional context
A split editor capability was accidentally introduced via a Theia dependency update, then removed (https://github.com/arduino/arduino-ide/pull/940) after it was found to be not fully functional (https://github.com/arduino/arduino-ide/issues/552).

The same feature is in VS Code by pressing Split Editor Right (COMMAND+\ on macOS).
