Tabs and panes
Each project has its own tabs. A tab holds one to four panes, arranged by splitting.
Splitting and arranging
- Alt+Shift+= splits the focused pane to the right and Alt+Shift+- splits it downward, with a new shell. The pane menu's Split right and Split down offer a Claude session or a shell.
- Drag the divider between two panes to resize them. Equalize sizes in the pane menu makes them equal again.
- Zoom pane (Alt+Shift+Z) shows the focused pane alone in its tab; the same item, then labeled Unzoom pane, restores the others.
- Swap with exchanges the pane with another pane of the tab.
- Move to moves the pane to a new tab or to another tab of the project.
Layout presets
Layout, in the pane menu and the tab menu, rearranges every pane of the tab. The panes keep their order.
| Preset | Arrangement |
|---|---|
| Columns | All panes side by side. |
| Rows | All panes stacked from top to bottom. |
| Grid 2×2 | Two columns and two rows. With three panes, the third spans the bottom row; with two, it is two columns. |
| Main + stack | The focused pane on the left at 60% of the width, the others stacked on the right. |

An item that cannot apply is grayed out, and hovering it shows the reason. The most common reasons are "Only pane in this tab" (Zoom, Swap with, Layout and Equalize sizes need two panes), "Already the only pane in its tab" (Move to new tab), "Tab is full (4 panes)", and, for Open in split, "The current tab belongs to another project" or "Already in the current tab". Open in split moves a session into the tab you have open, next to the focused pane, so the open tab must belong to the session's project.
