Description Michael Greifeneder

Build ID: 20090619-0625

Steps To Reproduce:
Current preview for WikiText is a separate tab in the editor. This has the disadvantage that no simultaneous view of editor and preview is possible.

The proposed enhancement should have these features:
1. Sticky view that shows a preview of currently opened wikitext editor.
2. Simultaneously see editor and preview side by side
3. Refreshes automatically on each save action. 
4. Freely moveable like a normal view.

Thanks for the feature request.  Related to 280331.

+1. I'm not sure that I'd put this in a separate view though. I think the WTP HTML editor has a nice model.. you can choose to see Edit, Preview, Horizontal Combined or Vertical Combined with sash.

Closed as part of backlog clean-up.  Please re-open if you'd like to see this revisited, perhaps with a contribution.
