Split View

Note: The Split View function is not available for all models.
 
The Split View function is one of the most powerful features for multitasking in NeoReader. It allows you to read the same document / different documents, or with notepad / translation function within one screen at the same time. In this article, you will learn how to use the functions of the Split View tab in NeoReader.
 

Horizontal Mode & Vertical Mode

Like the system Split Screen function, the Split View function of NeoReader can also split the screen in 2 different directions: Horizontal or Vertical. The Horizontal Mode will change the screen orientation to horizontal (landscape) view and divide it left and right. The Vertical Mode will change the screen orientation to vertical (portrait) view and divide it up and down.
 

Split View Options

Current Doc only: Here you can read different areas of the same document simultaneously. The handwriting, highlights, annotations and bookmarks will be synced to each other after page refresh.

Doc & Notepad: Here you can read the document and use the Notepad function simultaneously. The note will be created with the same name as the document and will be associated with it. The note can also be edited in the Notes app.

Note:
  1. Only available for models with handwriting functions.
  2. There will be only one note associated with the document. Changing the name of this note will not remove the association.
  3. You can also use the system Split Screen function to open the Notes app instead to avoid association.
 
Doc & Translate: Here you can use different translation engines including Onyx, Bing and Google Translate to help you understand the content when you are reading a document in a foreign language.
