How to open the same file in several windows?

[ldm]

Hi All,

Is it possible to open the same file in the several EmEditor windows (groups/instances)? How to?

Thank you!

Not that I know. However, I do sometimes use the split feature to view the same file over two of my screens (triple screen set-up). Still, being able to split the same file over two tabs for example would be interesting, especially when working on a laptop.

Opening the same file in several EmEditor windows is NOT supported.

Thanks!

Workaround solution:
Step 1. Launch EmEditor without any file
Step 2. Save as “Test-1.txt” (empty file)
Step 3. Open “FILE-A.txt”
Step 4. Save as “Test-1.txt” and overwrite the original one.
Step 5. Switch to original Tab.
Step 6. Click “Reload”
Done.

BTW, if disable “Enable Tabs” function, it can edit the same file in the several EmEditor windows.
