Description programster 2017-09-07 08:57:39 UTC 
I started using the split view (Edit->split) which is a fantastic feature. Whilst using it to view two different parts of the file that look similar to see if I could DRY them up, I noticed that if I perform an undo or redo action, either by using Ctrl-Z or manually selecting the action from the edit menu, *both* views will move to that location on the page, rather than just the view that I am currently active/focused on.

Is this a bug or a feature? If it is deliberate, is there a way to disable it so that only the window I am currently using will move rather than both. It's rather annoying having to re-find my spot every time I hit Ctrl-Z (which is rather a lot).
