If you do the split on the desired location at the chapter break, then it breaks at the beginning of the paragraph before, including material in the following chapter, or leaving out the chapter start.

Since it is necessary to inspect the HTML anyway, how about at least the option for a split in the code panel?

Thanks for the option to unsync the two panels. It would have been very helpful when I was doing alterations from paragraph to heading...if I had remembered to use it because updating with them synced takes forever!
IMHO
One reason is the green line will only land at a (as coded) valid AUTOMATIC split point.
You can't split inside a Span or Div or Blockquote without a lot of user help

The normal Split is Sigil was at the cursor. EXCEPT when the cursor was inside a tag pair and the results were not what you expected , sometimes, not even close

IMHO this way is better in that aspect

What I have not found is a way to programatically insert a split point using my friend REGEX.
In Sigil, I just inserted the "Sigil split Marker" code, then triggered the split using F6.
