Is this a feature in 2.0? It doesn't seem to work for me - I still see a large part of my terminal window filled with the dots, since the other session's terminal window is much smaller.


Ah, I forgot to mention: the resize -if the terminal-window is smaller- will still happen, but as long as the two sessions are operating on a different window they can be of different size.


I think I'm missing something.

Terminal A: 300x10 lines (long across, but short) Terminal B: 120x30 lines (standard new terminal size)

I have a tmux session running in A; I open terminal B, and attach to it with -new-session. My first pane is trimmed to the height of Terminal A.

If I do prefix-c (create new pane), the new pane is now the size of Terminal B - hurray!

But if I open Terminal C, which is yet another size, and attach to my existing session, it resizes every pane in Terminal B to the size of Terminal C; and when I disconnect from Terminal C, those panes do not appear to switch back to what they now should be, unconstrained by Terminal C.

(If I didn't explain this clearly, I can provide some screenshots later.)

I might be misunderstanding, but could you not use `tmux new-session -t 0` again for the third terminal?

Odd. Unrelated to your earlier issue, but that's not what I'd expect or am seeing when I try to reproduce is locally.


you need to turn on aggressive resizing.


Aha, thanks!

(Also, good to see you again, digitally - how's your hemisphere?)


Pretty good; working from a co-working space here. Just bought an apartment.
