Hi:

I already know I'm becoming senile, but I'm sure it used to be possible to
use a split screen to compare/edit/copy from one part of the same document
to another.

I'm currently doing trying to do such comparing/editing/copying, and the
only way I can do it is to open another window, which accomplishes something
similar, but because I have several other windows (and even apps) open,
Alt-Tabbing becomes very tedious.

I realize that I can click the mouse in the Window I want to switch to, but
when one is on a roll while typing that is also distracting.

Did there used to be such a split screen capability (and I also recall there
was some simple keystroke sequence that permitted jumping from one to the
other without using Alt+Tab) in LibreOffice? If so, where did it go? If it's
still there, how do I access it?

If it makes a difference, I'm using the SideBar. I'm also using LO 4.3.3.2
on 64-bit Ubuntu, and can't upgrade to any newer version because of the
various table and frame bugs that have appeared recently.

Thanks in advance for any comments ...
