Layouts

Each window can show one or more panes: each one displays the content of the section or link selected by its predecessor. The layout of the active window can be changed using the View menu.

There are four different layouts.

1. Simple View

Display only one section. This is the default mode.

2. Tree View

Display one section and a tree view of the file. Subsections can be reached directly with this tree.

The window is splitted in two parts, the left part shows the tree of folded sections and the right part show the content of the selected section. Links are also expanded in the tree.

To switch between the tree and the text with the keyboard, use the Return and SHIFT+Return keys.

3. Horizontal List View

This view tries to emulate a Smalltalk Class Browser: each level is displayed in a small pane.

To switch between the lists and the text with the keyboard, use the Return and SHIFT+Return keys.

Specific commands when the focus is in a pane:

Shortcut	Command
Up	Previous line
Down	Previous line
Left	Previous pane
Right	Previous pane
Home	First line
End	Last line
Page Up	Previous page
Page Down	Previous page
CTRL+Up	Previous line in left pane
CTRL+Down	Next line in left pane
CTRL+Home	First pane
CTRL+End	Last pane
Any letter	Access to the next line starting with this letter

4. Zoomable View

Display the tree of sections as a 2D map that can be zoomed. The sub-sections of a section are displayed at the right. Use the mouse-wheel to zoom-in or zoom-out.

The shortcuts are the same as the horizontal list view's.

To switch between the tree and the text with the keyboard, use the Return and SHIFT+Return keys.

5. Customizing the default layout

The layout can be customized for each language. So it is possible to open a file in a new window with a layout depending on the file type. See the options for more information.
