How is this still an issue with version 15.20 (160315) which is current at the time of writing (April 3rd 2016). I have one of the most powerful personal computers it is possible to purchase, and yet scrolling large docuements (50,000 words) makes my Mac feel like a toy. 1-2 seconds lag on scrolling, crashes, ugh! The application is taking 87-100% CPU.

To do that, there is an option called Synchronous Scrolling, which is under View Side by Side. Just click Synchronous Scrolling. This option lets you scroll both files at the same time. When you scroll, you will see both windows are scrolling at the same time so that comparing the two is quite simple.

To illustrate my problem: I have a docx-File with three paragraphs and a spreadsheet. Every paragraph and the spreadsheet contains the word 'test'. I want a version there via Strg+F the word 'test' can only be found in the third paragraph and the spreadsheet.

You can use the Window Menu to Tile the document windows for side-by-side display, but I'm afraid Mac Word 2011 still doesn't provide synchronous scrolling. You can submit your comments in support of the need for such capability by using Help Send Feedback.I sincerely doubt that anyone form Microsoft will offer any explanation as to 'why' the feature hasn't been included as yet, though.

Hello! I've only recently switched my bookkeeping / quoting / invoicing on the French version LibreOffice. I notice after research that there has been no fix as to the 'Side-by-side view of 2 files with synchronous scrolling'. It is standard with Excel and essential for working efficiently. I'm not just talking about translation using 2 documents, I professionnaly need it to view side-by-side all sorts of docs such as a quote next to its invoice, student papers to mark etc...
I'm new to this forum and would like to make this a suggestion for improvement (I've read quite a few request on the French (and English) forum but when people are told to post on the English one, well it doesn't seem to follow. So I would like to put this request if at all possible back on the 'agenda'... Am I at the right place? Is this the correct procedure?
Thank you all by the way for all the fantastic work you do (help/support & development...)
