Sync-Scroll with Detached Preview Window (Feature Request) #112

Feature Request: Sync-Scroll with Detached Preview Window

Because Brackets API does not allow us to have vertical scroll preview, like most professional Markdown editors, our best option is a detached preview window next to editor thanks to this wonderful extension.

The only thing is missing that detached preview window does not sync-scroll with the editor like most dual pane md editors.

If this can be done, like iA Writer for Windows which also launches a new window for preview, then this extension becomes a complete answer to Brackets API problems with not allowing vertical preview.

I also opened another issue to have a sub-option to hide the horizontal preview when launching external detached preview linked below.

Thanks again for this great work.

I'm not sure what you mean by the detached preview window. Having a detached window was a feature request several years ago, but it never did get implemented. Anyway, as mentioned in the other issue, thanks for reporting but I don't have time to make any improvements to this extension. I'd be happy to consider pull requests if you want to make the improvements.
