Question about splitting windows

For awhile now, I have been using jEdit with a console compiler to write my C++ programs. Working with command line in Windows isn't exactly the pretiest thing. (I have linux on my laptop but new windows on my desktop for proprietary home recording software).

I head about codeblocks and decided to give it a try.

The reason I love jEdit is the ability to split windows, and see different files in each "split". For example, I split my main windows horizontally, and then vertically, and I have open:
main.cpp - in main window
class1.h - in bottom right window
class1.cpp - in bottom left window

I find it very convenient to have them all on the screen. jEdit also has a super easy way to toggle, so I can click the split in the bottom left and switch it to class2.h with 1 click.

I was curious if this was possible to do in codeblocks? I know you can split windows, but I noticed when I split a window, each split was showing the same file. I couldn't find an option to change which file was displayed in each split.

Thank you!

Hi Merton,

there is already a patch for Code::Blocks for splitting windows horizontally and vertically and it works!!. It will need some testing, but it will be integrated in the future :D

Bye,

Mario

I doubt it will... remember that we are testing the "all wxAUI" patch? In that case splitting windows is simply obsolete.
