Linux – how to change a pane to the main pane in tmux

linuxtmux

In tmux, when i use main-vertical layout, it always selects the main pane that will be having the larger size. Is there any way we can make the current pane the larger size when using main-vertical? or changing the current pane to the main pane.?

Best Answer

Try the rotate-window command, bound to Ctrl-o / Meta-o by default, or the swap-pane command, bound to { and } (the two choices operate in opposite directions).

There does not seem to be a way to do this automatically. You can, however use the mouse:

 mouse-resize-pane [on | off] 
    If on, tmux captures the mouse and allows panes to be
    resized by dragging on their borders.
