How to open the same file twice

Question

I wonder how to open the same source file twice, meaning in 2 editors side by side?

When I have the first editor opened, pull the file on another editor window, I'll be sent to the 'old' window (I've just opened) and I can not open the same file twice.

Thanks in advnace.

It's possible only in the split mode (split editor horizontally or vertically). — CrazyCoder, Apr 02 '13 at 10:17

Splitting the editor (from the tab context menu) allows to have 2 copies of the same file open at the same time.
