Is There a Split Screen Option?

I use Scrivener on my Mac, and love the ability to view my full notes on one half of the screen while I type on the other half of the screen.

Do we have this ability with PageFour?

No, I'm afraid not. I took the decision to use tabs in place of a split screen, whereas Keith over at Scrivener went with the split screen.

Thanks, Darren. I'm loving the tabs and the overall setup you've got going -- but a split screen would be icing on the cake.

I tend to put my notes in separate folders/pages to organize and then type my final document in a new page from that. If it's at all possible, I'd love for it to be considered for a future update :)

I second the motion.

A split screen is essential for comparing documents. Tabs are necessary for efficiency. Both are absolutes for computer writing in my opinion.

Seconding this as well. I store notes as well as manuscripts in a project notebook. Would be handy if I could see notes at the same time I'm writing.
