Actual iPad splitWindow examples anywhere?

I can't seem to find any working examples of a splitWindow. The example given in the API and iPad Kitchen Sink don't split anything. They just open a new window.

How are those considered examples of how to use splitWindow?

Thx

    The ipad sample is pretty weak and it's nothing like a real split view an application would have. It needs something like the picture they have in the API documentation for the split window class.

    There's a good chance the reason you are not seeing the split is because you didn't turn the simulator sideways. In the default ipad simulator position you get to see only the detail view window, but if you turn the simulator (using the appropriate menu option) then you'll see both views.
