Add sync scrolling for split view

[Lukeeee]

Hi,

I have sometimes the need to read two similar html reports and split view is very useful for this!

It would be very nice if it could be possible to sync the scrolling of the views. What do you think?

Thanks,
Luca

Agreed! the ability to synchronize scrolling will set apart Firefox's split view capability from the rest of the browsers now offering it.  It would be very useful for comparing 2 documents side by side for changes/markups to only scroll one.

Agreed as well. Having a simple toggle option either in the context menu or at the bottom where the active tab label is shown would be great!

Split view and stick both tabs to scroll together

Hi!
Thank you for your wonderful work! I really love the 'Split View' feature.
My idea is that once you have added two tabs to Split View, you should be able to stick them together so that they scroll as a pair. This would be useful for comparing the content of both tabs.
To achieve this, an option called 'Stick Tabs' could be added to the Split View menu.

really good idea +1

I know what you mean, but the name could be confusing. Many text editors have this feature, and there it’s called “sync scrolling”. This is what i would be calling it here, too.

And yes, good idea, i’d like it!

+1! I just came to submit this exact feature request, but you beat me to it. This would be incredibly useful when comparing user permissions on enterprise sites where user administration tools were written in 2005 (*cough cough, Amazon Seller Central, cough cough*).
