Say, I got two windows, Window 1 contains 2 pane (1, 2), Window 2 contains 3 panes(1,2,3), and I'm in pane 1 in Window 1, and I want to jump directly into the pane 2 in Window 2, PREFIX w
which is choose-window
will list all the windows in the session so I can jump into the right window, but it will not list the panes, PREFIX q
which is display-panes
will let me choose the right pane only in the current window, but not across windows.
So I wonder if there is any command that let me choose panes across windows.
The best solution is choose-window
or a new command will not only list all the windows but also list all the panes inside each window like tree
in a directory.

This is an old post, actually this problems was already solved by commit aad4e4d on github page a long ago, use
choose-tree
(just bind it to a key) to show all panes in all sessions/widows/tabs, it even shows a preview box when you scroll line into one pane from the list, very nice.Just compile and install
tmux
from github source code and you can use this feature.
