In previous versions of VSCode there was an arrow icon at the top of the panel that could be used to maximize the panel, for instance the terminal. I do not know exactly in which version but that button is now gone and I'm unable to find an equivalent.
My question is: how can I maximize the terminal so it takes the whole VSCode window? Is there any way to get the button back?
Which version of VSCode are you using, and in which OS?
On Mac, and with 1.65.2 (the most recent update by now), I have it in the right corner, near the X button:
Shortcuts
Now talking about shortcuts to make your life easier, there are 2 you should be aware of.
PS: Remember that to change any shortcuts, just go over VSCode Command Palette and type Keyboard Shortcuts to change them.
Maximise panel size
There are no default shortcuts for those, in both Windows and Mac.
If you want to set any, the name of the shortcut is View: Toggle Maximized Panel:
Increasing / decreasing terminal size
Now talking shortcuts, if you want to resize your terminal window, in Mac there's a native shortcut that allows to increase / decrease terminal size with Cmd + Ctrl + Arrow Up / Arrow Down.
There's no default for Windows.
If you want to set / change those shortcuts, they are called Terminal: Resize Terminal Down and Terminal: Resize Terminal Up:
Terminal panel on the side
If you added your panel to either left or right, then the mark to make it fullscreen changes.
After clicking on the arrow below, it'll hide all your files and make the terminal to run in the whole screen for VSCode:
I also got the arrow disappeared, but i manage to bring it back by with command:workbench.action.alignPanelCenter
But i don't know i un align it in the first place
So maybe it will work with you
To get the maximize arrow on the left panel...
Left-click the bottom panel, then choose Move Panel Left
To get the maximize arrow on the bottom panel...
First, press the Customize Layout button
And select Center Panel Alignment
Then move the panel back to the bottom.
Panel can be maximized when centered.
Example: If panel is not centered and the Maximize button is missing you also cannot use the command by hitting
Shift-Ctrl-P View: Toggle Maximize Panel
Fix: run these commands (press Shift-Ctrl-P then begin typing)
First command will enable the maximize button
View: Set Panel alignment to Center
Second command will now work to Maximize (or just press the button that shows up now)
View: Toggle Maximize Panel
Blue and skube have the right answer to the original question. I cannot comment so summarize an answer using commands that can be pasted to verify.

I am using tmux (version 2.3) and I have only one option in my .tmux.conf file:
set -g mouse on
I then follow the following steps to reproduce:
1) open up tmux
2) split into two vertical panes
3) move the cursor to the left pane
4) select some amount of text from multiple lines in left pane
5) immediately after letting go of the left mouse button when making the selection, an EQUAL amount of text in size to the selection, of gibberish characters, is pasted into the right hand pane overwriting whatever was previously on display on the right.
If I then click and select in the right pane, then the right pane reverts back and shows what it previously was showing. And again, the same thing happens... selecting text in the right pane, now causes a equal size selection of gibberish to overwrite the left hand pane.
Is this a bug?
I can reproduce this easily. Does anyone else experience this or have a workaround?
I have attached a picture showing this behavior (in this case in the picture, only 1 line of gibberish shows up after selecting on the left hand side).
This is because you are using a terminal that claims to be xterm - so you have TERM=xterm outside tmux - but does not support the OSC 52 clipboard escape sequence.
You can either turn off the set-clipboard option in tmux (set -g set-clipboard off) to prevent it trying to use this sequence, or change to use the right TERM for your terminal outside tmux.
How do I get rid of the minimap in Xcode?
Updated for Xcode 13
Open a code file, such as *.swift, and press the second from the right button in the top right corner. Then click on Minimap:
In older versions of Xcode, this looked as follows:
in XCode 12.0.1
there are 3 ways to hide or show Minimap.
first, you can do it with the Adjust editor option (see the following image).
next way: check or uncheck Minimap from Editor(menu) -> Minimap. (like following image)
and the last way you can use ⌃⇧⌘M and show or hide Minimap.
Navigate to Adjust Editor Options (at the top right corner, to the left of the Add Editor Below button) and uncheck Minimap (or press ^⇧⌘M).
This is called minimap window which give you insight of where you're in part of whole storyboard/code. This feature was introduced in Xcode11 and is quite useful.
You can show/hide simply by using shortcut key as: cmd + shift + ctrl + M.
Alternatively, you can choose 'Adjust Editor Options' i.e multi-lined stacked icon present on top right of Xcode. Deselect Minimap from dropdown list to hide it and Select to show it.
Is there a way to make Vs-code on Mac only zoom the text/file pane of the window? When I hit Command ⌘+ to zoom, it'll zoom all of the window, ie. also the icons on the left hand side and the file pane on the left as well.
Compare these two screen shots, maybe ;)
Vs-code window, normal
Vs-code window, zoomed in
I'd only like the source file (nfsd.sh in the screen shot) to be zoomed.
Answered in https://stackoverflow.com/a/41684631/5295392:
Out of Box solution for zoom in/out for text only:
Ctrl + Shift + P
Type (Open User Settings)
Search (Edit settings.json)
Add "editor.mouseWheelZoom": true
Save it.
You can use your mouse wheel to zoom in or zoom out only text in the text box.
Open your settings.json file and increase editor.fontSize to increase the size of the text on the source file.
Ctrl + Shift + P
Search 'Zoom'
Pick "Editor Font Zoom In"
Repeat till you get what you want.
On Mac, while pressing the command key, slide two fingers upward to zoom out. Slide downward to zoom in.
Is there a keyboard shortcut to quickly hide the left/right panels in RStudio? I can drag the vertical bar to resize the panels but that's cumbersome.
I'm not sure that there's a hotkey for hiding the left / right / upper / lower panels, but you might find the shortcut keys for zooming to a given quadrant pane useful.
For example, in Linux (and I'm guessing Windows):
CTRL+SHIFT+1 = Zoom Source
CTRL+SHIFT+2 = Zoom Console
...
CTRL+SHIFT+0 = Show All Panes
The whole list of the pane zoom shortcut keys can be seen under the View > Panes menu. These hotkeys seem to be rather recent additions, as the earliest mention that I can see of them is for release v0.99.902.
I am on windows xp,
Is there any way to maximize my cmd.exe window?
I am doing some mysql and it is so difficult to read results of my queries in such a small window.
Why maximize does not really maximizes it?
Is there a way for maximizing?
Or maybe an alternative command prompt I can use?
thanks
Click on the top left icon in the window (the "C:\" one) and select "Properties".
Then select the "Layout" tab and change the window size to what you want it to be (I have 128x50 for the screen and 128x999 for the scroll buffer). You can also optionally set the top left position (I always have it at 1,1) if you don't want Windows itself deciding where the window goes.
When you click on OK, make sure you tell it to modify the shortcut that started the window.
Then it will remember.
This is for XP, other MS operating systems may vary slightly but the general idea should be the same.
Try this:
In the Command window, right click the Title
bar and select Properties from the
popup menu. The property sheet
appears.
In the property sheet, select 'Full
Screen' in the 'Display Options'
box.
Close the property sheet by clicking
OK and select 'Save proeprties for
future windows with same title'.
I would recommand that you use powershell
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/technologies/management/powershell/download.mspx
It also support full screen mode, and some other nice feature.
Command Window Default Properties
Click on the sytem menu, or with focus set on the Command Windows, press Alt+Space, and select Properties. Change your Font, Window Size, and so on. I always change my Window Size (on the Layout tab) to Width 80 by Height 65 and Screen Buffer Size to 80 by 300.
Check out Console2, it seems to be about the most promising window enhancement for cmd.exe.
I have to say, cmd.exe is probably the worst part of windows! Especially the copy pasting support, etc.
Personally, I use putty to ssh into a Linux box when I really need to do command line work, you can't go past Bash.
Even though you could install that on windows using Cygwin, which will allow you to use another console, although this doesn't have the ability to override the windows cmd.exe, it might be worth a shot given that you are trying to use a command line application, and not windows :).
Access Properties by right clicking on top of the CMD window, go back to the Font tab, select either 10 x 18 or 12 x 16, and then click OK. You'll then need to go back to the Layout tab and reset the Screen Buffer Size Width to the appropriate value. For example, I selected the 10 x 18 font size and then changed the Screen Buffer Size Width to 160X300 and window size width to 134X37.
