    To resize tmux panes, you'll first want to hit your prefix — ctrl + b by default — and then the colon key :. What this does is brings up a prompt at the bottom of your screen. Now you'll want to type in resize-pane in the prompt, followed by a hyphen - and either D, U, L, R. Which you can probably guess stands for down, up, left and ...

    This doesn't work using tmux 1.9 It resizes but not to the correct value. My conf: set -g default-terminal "screen" new splitw -v selectp -t 0 resize-pane -t 0 -y 5 set -g status off Its almost like tmux has a minimum value or something for auto setting the rows during load. -

    How to resize Tmux panes. Resizing panes in Tmux is quite complex when using the default keybinding. However, don't worry since, in this tutorial guide, I will be illustrating how to configure the tmux.conf file to aid in easily resizing the panes. By default, when you create a pane/s in Tmux, it splits the window into 50% splits.

    Nov 2, 2023For more precise control, Tmux provides resize-pane commands. It accepts -U, -D, -L, -R options to resize the current pane up, down, left or right respectively. We can pass an argument to specify the resize amount in cells: # Resize current pane down by 5 cells resize-pane -D 5 # Resize current pane right by 10 cells resize-pane -R 10. Some ...

    I usually connect to remote linux servers from a specific windows server (W1). On the Windows side, I use putty and on the linux side, I start tmux.. Occasionally, I have to use a different windows server (W2) and connect to the same tmux sessions.. Problem: If I had set a size for the putty windows on W1, then I can not exceed this size on W2. When I maximise the putty window, the extra space ...

    LICENSE. tmux is one of the best terminal multiplexers out there. I've been using tmux for 5+ years and I can't think any development workflow without it. Being able to have multiple sessions/windows/panes in a single terminal instance has definitely great benefits. It also has persistent sessions and sharing capabilities as well.. By default when creating panes — whether horizontal or ...

  1. By default these bindings (among others) are active:

    bind-key -r -T prefix       M-Up              resize-pane -U 5
    bind-key -r -T prefix       M-Down            resize-pane -D 5
    bind-key -r -T prefix       M-Left            resize-pane -L 5
    bind-key -r -T prefix       M-Right           resize-pane -R 5
    bind-key -r -T prefix       C-Up              resize-pane -U
    bind-key -r -T prefix       C-Down            resize-pane -D
    bind-key -r -T prefix       C-Left            resize-pane -L
    bind-key -r -T prefix       C-Right           resize-pane -R

    This means you can resize a pane by prefixAlt ← or prefixCtrl ↓ etc.

    (The default prefix is Ctrl B.)

    Thanks to -r you can do prefixCtrl ↓↓↓… without repeating prefix many times, if you strike ↓ fast enough. Holding ↓ instead of striking it repeatedly may or may not work. If it doesn't work then it means tmux does not receive the second (or later) ↓ soon enough. In this case you can:

    • Reconfigure your keyboard. E.g. in my Kubuntu the initial delay is 600 ms, which is higher than the default threshold of 500 ms used by tmux, therefore holding ↓ doesn't work by default. Then there will be 25 repeats per second, i.e. with the average interval of 40 ms, which is good enough for tmux. Changing 600 ms to 400 ms in the system-wide keyboard settings allows me to use prefixCtrl ↓ (hold).

    • Reconfigure tmux. The behavior is governed by the repeat-time option:

      repeat-time <em>time</em>
      Allow multiple commands to be entered without pressing the prefix-key again in the specified time milliseconds (the default is 500). Whether a key repeats may be set when it is bound using the -r flag to bind-key. Repeat is enabled for the default keys bound to the resize-pane command.

      Example command (in a shell inside tmux):

        tmux set repeat-time 1000

      Or in ~/.tmux.conf (permanent setting):

        set -g repeat-time 1000

    Whichever method you choose (one or both), you want repeat-time in tmux to be higher than the delay and the repeat interval in your keyboard settings. Then you will even be able to

    prefixCtrl ↓ (hold)↑ (hold)← (hold)→ (hold)…

    with just one prefix and without releasing Ctrl, if only you switch between ↓, ↑, ← and → fast enough. If your prefix includes Ctrl then you don't need to release it. I mean with the default prefix of Ctrl B you can do this:

    Ctrl B↓ (hold)↑ (hold)← (hold)→ (hold)…

    holding Ctrl during the entire sequence.
