I have one calc file with several sheets. I would like to see two of those sheets side by side, a bit like it can be done in, say, a file manager (like the two panes mode or two tabs in Nautilus, for example).
Is this possible?
Cheers
Yes, it’s possible, but not fully built-in. This is a two steps process.
- Once your file opened, click Window > New. This will open a new window for the same file (the file is not opened twice). A change in the first window will automatically be seen in the new one.
- Assuming you use Unity, focus the first window (by clicking on it for instance). Then press Ctrl+Super+Left. Focus the second one, press Ctrl+Super+Right.
The Super key is also known as the Windows key.
If you use another desktop environment, there should be a way of semi-maximising.

Cheers, perfect explanation!
In the tabbed interface, it’s View -> New Window button on the far right for me.
Choose Window-New window.
Align the windows with your window manager
Thanks a lot for that! Even though you gave the same answer, I had to choose hyogapag’s because of the extra precision. Cheers!
Simpler answer does translate to MacOS X environment easily.
