Split View in the rules editor.
Rules and feeders in view.
Editing a feeder while referring to the corresponding rule? Split View divides the rules editor into two panes. Keep the calculation visible on the left while, for example, working on the feeder on the right.
The short answer
Open the rule in the modeling workbench and click Split View. The editor displays two sections of the same rules script side by side. The feature is available from PAW 2.1.22 or 3.1.9.
