You can also resize panes if you don’t like the layout defaults. I personally rarely need to do this, though it’s handy to know how. Here is the basic syntax to resize panes:
PREFIX : resize-pane -D
(Resizes the current pane down)
PREFIX : resize-pane -U
(Resizes the current pane upward)
PREFIX : resize-pane -L
(Resizes the current pane left)
PREFIX : resize-pane -R
(Resizes the current pane right)
PREFIX : resize-pane -D 20
(Resizes the current pane down by 20 cells)
PREFIX : resize-pane -U 20
(Resizes the current pane upward by 20 cells)
PREFIX : resize-pane -L 20
(Resizes the current pane left by 20 cells)
PREFIX : resize-pane -R 20
(Resizes the current pane right by 20 cells)
PREFIX : resize-pane -t 2 20
(Resizes the pane with the id of 2 down by 20 cells)
PREFIX : resize-pane -t -L 20
(Resizes the pane with the id of 2 left by 20 cells)
<prefix> [
then you can use your normal navigation keys to scroll around. Press q
to quit scroll mode.
Alternatively you can press <prefix> PgUp
to go directly into copy mode and scroll one page up.
<prefix> [
to enter copy mode
<prefix> w
to copy region highlighted
