Tool Windows split mode

Hello, after update to 2020.1 version of PyCharm I noticed that tool window split mode is unavailable anymore.

You can still find this option using search, but it is marked as deprecated.

Description of split mode was removed from help too: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/viewing-modes.html

 

So, the question is, how to enable split mode in new PyCharm 2020?

Yes, i also have noticed that split mode is missing.

I think "splitting" is now managed like this:


On the left sidebar you have buttons to expand a view for example "project" or "structure". This sidebar is divided in an upper and lower part.
You can drag and drop such a sidebar button from the upper part to the lower part on this left sidebar with your mouse.

After that you can expand both views (press sidebar expand button on the upper and lower part on the left sidebar), and you should now have both views expanded simultaneously e.g. the "split view" you had before.
