I would appreciate the opportunity to open one document in two separate tabs.
I know there is a script (Edit -> Open in two windows), but this script does not work well for me (only small parts of the second window are visible on my laptop screen).
As DT3 has a one window philosophy, I believe that opening two tabs is more intuitive.
Thank you for considering this request.
Welcome @psoros
As DT3 has a one window philosophy, I believe that opening two tabs is more intuitive.
It really depends on the individual - the mindset and needs - whether tabs or windows are intuitve.
It is not possible to open a document in more than one tab in a single window.
PS: An update to the Open in two windows script should be coming in the future.
I often read papers with lots of references. It is time-consuming to scroll back and forth.
As it is not possible to open a document in more than one tab (and see the text in one tab and the references in another), I would like to suggest to add a split view, such as found in Skim.

To scroll back and forth between… what?
In most scientific papers, references to the literature are printed at the end of an article (in humanities, this might be different).
When I read a paper and come across a reference to another paper, I have to scroll to the end to check the reference (some papers have hyperlinks that bring me close to the reference, but not all papers have it). This was meant when I wrote that I have to scroll back and forth. I.e., between main text and references.
When you read a paper with Skim, you can use the split view function and have the text in the upper part of the window and the references in the lower part of the window. My intention was to show this in my screen shot above.
So my feature request is to have a split view function similar to Skim.
Thank you for considering.
The request is noted. It’s actually the first we’ve received. Development will have to assess this. Cheers!
Thank you!
It’s not possible to open two document windows but you can both view a document in its own window and in the preview pane of the main window at the same time.

Actually, you can with the Open in two windows script.
I initially wrote it to look at a Markdown file’s code and rendered view side-by-side. Then I modified it to be able to look at an annotation next to it referred document. Both things DEVONthink 3 has built in now
