Two live pages / One workspace

More room.
Same context.

Keep a reference beside the page you are working on. Give either side more space without switching tabs.

19-second recording of Hronaut 1.11.59. Synthetic local example pages; the complete app window stays visible. Music is optional. All steps appear below.

Get started

Put both pages in sight.

  1. Open two website tabs.

    Start with the page you want to work on and the reference you want beside it.

  2. Choose the second page.

    Use the split-view button beside the address bar, or right-click a tab and choose Open in Split View.

  3. Make room for the details.

    Drag the divider. Click either page to focus it; the address bar and Page tools follow the active pane.

Keyboard controls

Small adjustments. No guesswork.

Focus the divider with the keyboard. Use Left/Right for side-by-side pages, or Up/Down for stacked pages.

What happens in the recording

Two local example pages start at an even split. A mouse drag gives the implementation about two-thirds of the space. Two Shift + Left adjustments narrow it again. A double-click restores equal panes.

The split menu also switches to a stacked layout, swaps the pages, and returns to one page. Your pair, layout, order, and proportion survive a restart. Selecting a third tab exits the pair; closing either pane gives the remaining page the full area.
