Yes but you have to specifically select "Sync" from the menu. I don't really like the multi-document windowing model of TeXShop that much, it's sometimes too easy to lose windows in the background if you've got a lot of files open. Also if you do that and open a file with only a Latex fragment in it, then you have to get back to the original, top level file (in some background window that you may have to now locate) to press "Typeset" and see your changes. Because Texpad sees the set of files as all-one-document (if, of course, you opened it from the top level document), you can 'sync' to a subsidiary file, fix the issue and press "Typeset" and it re-typesets the whole thing. Additionally on the left you've got little navigator / file hierarchy thing that shows you the files included from the top level one, and you can click around that too.

The editor is not as powerful though. It was worth the twenty buck spend though to have a good look at it. I'm still considering what exactly I will do for an editor ... bear in mind my main writing tool is still MMD format in Scrivener.
