Same file in both columns ST3

#1

I often want to view two sections of the same file at once. What I want to do is have two columns active for my view, and have the same file open in both column views. Is this possible? When I try to do this, clicking the second view so its active, then clicking the same file in the file folder that is tabbed in the first column simply makes that tab the focus, still in the first column. Has anyone else run into this issue?
I should add this is with SublimeText 3

See if this works for you:

Open your file in view 1
Make a second view (Alt+Shift+2 or View -> Layout -> Columns: 2)
Give focus to the second view (click on it)
Open the file you opened in view 1 with Control + P or Goto -> Goto Anything
You should now see your file in two views
