Description

I used a plugin called flow-netbeans-markdown (http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/50964/markdown-support). This plugin has a preview to show the output, what I'm typing, but I only can change between source, history and preview via Ctrl + Alt + Page Up/Down in the same window. The problem is that I disabled the option "show editor toolbar" so I can't split the window anymore without using the mouse.

I would like to have on one side my sourcecode and on the other side my preview, and this is what I would like todo with a shortcut. Type Ctrl + Alt + Whatever, should split the window, then I can navigate to the other view and type Ctrl + Alt + Page Up/Down to take the preview.

I created a ticket here: https://github.com/madflow/flow-netbeans-markdown/issues/61#issuecomment-59777381 and you can see, that the dev means that this should be a default functionality, to split a window with a shortcut and to show the preview via navigation or to split the window and show the preview with a shortcut. If there is a preview or similar thing available. And yes I go with this opinion.

Chris
