I realize he specified a new editing window. Showing an alternative for those, like me, that do not want a new editor but would like to be able to look at the file in two places at the same time in the same tab.
Window -> Editor -> Toggle Split Editor
will split the editor horizontally or vertically.
Ctrl + _
is horizontal and Ctrl + {
is vertical. More precisely it's Ctrl + Shift + -
and Ctrl + Shift + [
.
I had issues with it in Mars (see note below) that seem to have cleared up in Neon.
Mars Note: The split editor seems a bit buggy. The JavaScript editor likes to jump the cursor to the other pane momentarily when it does a while-you-type-validation.
