Hello! I've only recently switched my bookkeeping / quoting / invoicing on the French version LibreOffice. I notice after research that there has been no fix as to the 'Side-by-side view of 2 files with synchronous scrolling'. It is standard with Excel and essential for working efficiently. I'm not just talking about translation using 2 documents, I professionnaly need it to view side-by-side all sorts of docs such as a quote next to its invoice, student papers to mark etc...I'm new to this forum and would like to make this a suggestion for improvement (I've read quite a few request on the French (and English) forum but when people are told to post on the English one, well it doesn't seem to follow. So I would like to put this request if at all possible back on the 'agenda'... Am I at the right place? Is this the correct procedure?
Thank you all by the way for all the fantastic work you do (help/support & development...)

Word opens a small toolbar with these three buttons:
Ms Word For Mac Synchronous Scrolling
- Synchronous Scrolling: Click this button to turn synchronous-scrolling mode on and off.
- Reset Window Position: Click this button to place the two documents side by side on yourscreen, if they are not in such a position already.
- Break Side by Side: Click this button when you're finished to turn off the Compare Side bySide mode.
The two documents will probably be placed on your screen side by side - but maybe not. If not, clickthe Reset Window Position button. You can switch between different modes as often as youlike. Click one document's Maximize button (on the window's title bar) to open it up; thenclick Reset Window Position to bring it back to the side-by-side position.
With Synchronous Scrolling mode turned on, you can scroll in one document and the otherdocument scrolls down, too. So if you have two versions of the same document - an original and arevised version - you can scroll through the two documents at once, and view the changes.
