Split pane view
Reflect’s split-pane view lets you view and edit two notes at the same time.
To use it, press command while clicking a purple backlink (or control if you’re on Windows). The back-linked note will open in the split-view.
To close the split-view, press escape.
What is this used for?
The split-view is especially useful for creating and editing backlinks without leaving the context of your daily note.
See below, we are still in the context of daily notes, while editing a referenced note.
Can I open it with the keyboard?
Absolutely. Use the arrow keys to select a backlink, and then press command enter
To close, hit escape
You can also toggle the focus between the left and right split views with: command option left and command option right
