I am in Bookview when I initiate the split. The cursor is to the left of Chapter One.

(cursor)Chapter One

What happens is I do the split. (It is successful.) Then I have "chapter" in the "Find" tool. When I click on Find, Sigil automatically switches to Codeview and takes me to "Chapter One." I then click Find again and it of course takes me to Chapter Two. Then I switch back to Bookview. Make sure the cursor is to the left of "Chapter Two" and repeat the process.

Every split worked properly until I got to xhtml10. Then it bogged.

Regarding your question in the other post about non-breaking spaces. The non-breaking spaces I added, those were all serving as scene breaks so "Chapter" would not be there at all. So it was impossible that a non-breaking space would get in the way.

What I thought was unusual was that on my home computer I could stay on Bookview while using the Find tool (in the process described above), whereas on my work computer (the one that I had the problem on) when I used the Find tool (in Bookview looking for "chapter") it kicked me into Codeview.

I need to work on this book, so what I was thinking was prudent was to do the splits in Codeview. (Although the User Manual suggests doing it in Bookview.)

Any suggestions for how to do the chapter splits without breaking another file? (I don't know if you saw theducks suggestion of doing shift-control-enter for the individual splits and then F6 to do the collectively.)

Thanks.
