Research direction
The issue is a user question about whether side-by-side layout panels with synced pan/zoom already exist in KLayout 0.30.5; no files, classes, or tests are named. Start by searching the existing view and layout-panel code for how multiple views and pan/zoom are handled. Done would be a documented way to enable split synced views or a clear statement that the feature is out of scope.

Description
I’m trying to compare two different layout panels (e.g., GDS/OASIS files) in KLayout and would like to view them side by side, with synchronized pan and zoom for easier navigation.
Is this possible with the current version of KLayout? If so, how can I enable it?
