Windows Terminal Preview - Scrolls through tabs? - windows-terminal

I recently downloaded the new Windows Terminal Preview, mainly for the tabs feature! However, when I had a lot of tabs open, I can't seem to find a way to scroll through the tabs when they start to go off the screen without closing out of other tabs first.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Under Linux, in gnome-terminal, you can 'scroll' through the tabs with the mouse-wheel; position it on a tab and start wheeling. It might work for you as well -- you might want to try it.

Vim stops scrolling randomly in terminal?

Usually I can scroll in vim when I open a file in the mac terminal.
However, recently, all of a sudden sometimes I am not able to.
When I go to scroll, instead the entire terminal scrolls so I see what I had previously typed in the shell.
How can I fix this?
This is new, I've been using vim for months and it has only started to happen now.
You probably messed with the mouse setting.

PhpStorm terminal jumps from external monitor to default on focus, mac os x

I have 2 monitors: my notebook monitor, and primary big dell monitor. PhpStorm 9.02 and MacOS X 10.10.5.
When I work at PhpStorm, I move my terminal window to secondary notebook display, and when I focus PhpStorm or terminal, terminal jumps to primary monitor. When I work with 1 tab of terminal everything looks fine after switching on Pinned mode and Floating mode at terminal settings. But today I open 3 tabs, and terminal starts jumps again.
It's very annoying when you often switch between browser and PhpStorm.
Do somebody have the same problem and fix for it?
Known bug, please vote for IDEA-116096.
See also the corresponding JDK issue:
http://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8069154
Please look #lena answer and vote for issue at intellij.
I found solution thats help me to avoid terminal window jumping:
Create new tabs in terminal.
Drag it to secondary display, so they become separate window.
Close main terminal window.
Child tabs don't jumps between displays.
I solved this by changing a setting in mission control.
Just uncheck the 'Displays have separate spaces' option.
Go to System Preferences.
Click on Mission Control.
Uncheck the box marked Displays have separate spaces.
Log out an login in again.

how to get multiple column layout for terminal on mac?

I consistently have 3 tabs open in terminal and have to switch between all three tabs all the time. I would like to have all them show tabs split vertically?
like below
what i want to achieve is to show each tab at the same time. Is that possible?
like below
As an alternative for multi desktops:
Open two terminal windows
Toggle one of the terminal windows fullscreen
Activate 'Mission Control' (F3 or swipe up with 3 fingers)
Drag the second terminal window onto the first's fullscreen space
OS X terminal doesn't have the option to split panes vertically. It is only possible to split horizontally.
I recommend using iTerm2 on OS X. It has a lot of features missing in default terminal, including possibility to split windows both horizontally and vertically.

How to make iTerm2 appear on the current screen?

Under Preferences -> 'Keys' It is possible to tick Show/hide iTerm2 with a system-wide hotkey.
However iTerm always appears on the main display (monitor) instead of where the cursor currently resides.
e.g. if I have three monitors, and am working on the third screen, the hotkey makes iTerm appear on first monitor, instead of where I am currently working.
Any advice how to solve this please?
UPDATE:
The bug strikes back again in v.3.1.6. If any workarounds are known, please share.
I'm on Sierra using iTerm 3.1 and I have the option under window to put the screen where the cursor is (bottom right drop down options). I'm using it with a hotkey.
The answer by Grant works.
The only thing you need to do is to install the beta version since there was a bug in the stable version.
This bug was fixed in 3.1.beta.1 https://iterm2.com/downloads.html
Here's the link to the latest beta version https://iterm2.com/downloads/beta/iTerm2-3_1_beta_4.zip
This may be a couple more keystrokes than you were hoping for, but if you install window management software like Size Up, you can get this working with just a few keystrokes.
Maintain your ⌥Space hotkey preference on Iterm2. Go to Size Up -> Preferences and change 'Send Window Prev Monitor' to an easy keystroke. I used ⌥1.
Now, you can do ⌥Space to get the terminal open and ⌥1 one or two times to get it to your monitor of choice. It takes a couple of key combos, but not too many!
I had this problem with macos monterey and iterm 3.4.15. I'm using the hotkey to show the terminal with slide-out window. After some search on the internet I found that disabling the option on system preferences to reopen closed documents solved the issue and the hotkey is now opening terminal on the screen with cursor as it should.
mac -> System preferences -> General -> (deselect this) Close windows when quitting an app
Neither of the above worked for me, but this helped, even though the question was quite different in that thread.

Disable " Stay on top" features on photoshop CS2

Photoshop CS2 always stay on top, even when I click another app from the windows taskbar (right of the start button).
It's completly annoying me. Always need minimized, click the other app, reclick again on photoshop, re-reminimized.
I only have 1 screen at work so I can't let photoshop on one screen and work with the other app on the other screen.
I look in all photoshop menu, find nothing
I googled the problem, and find a adobe page explain this problem is a "feature".
I only want photoshop cs2 work all other app on windows and loose focus, let new app appear on top.
Thank you.
I had this problem and somehow solved it. But my solution may be just as fickle as why the problem occurs in the first place. But here's what I did:
On the layers palette (F7) I clicked on the small arrow just below the close "X" button, on the right. Then I selected "Pallete Options"
Didn't change any options but just clicked OK.
Now the entire window remained on top, not just the palettes. So I restarted Photoshop and it seemed to fix the issue.
I found that if you open up "edit > preferences > Memory & Image Cache" and set your memory usage up then it will fix it. I am on a Windows 10.
See this post:
https://www.reddit.com/r/photoshop/comments/35lmtu/photoshop_keeps_putting_itself_in_front_of_my/
Go to Edit > Preferences > File Handling > Uncheck Enable Version Cue Workgroup File Management
I literally JUST found this on accident and fixed it after having issues with all my toolbars being hidden behind stuff, and not being able to minimize without clicking on the PS window first etc. Seems to have worked!

I am having same issue with CS2 on Windows 7 64 bit. To work around, I hit tab on keyboard when photoshop window is active, that makes all pallets invisible, then I can switch to any window I need to work on.
As per this article there seem to be issue with Microsoft update https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2142314
