How to adjust the position of the internal terminal

Question

I made a mistake, I put vs built-in terminal position, from the bottom of the screen, change to the right side of the screen, but it doesn't work out, even more, more trouble is that I can't change the terminal from the right side of the screen to the bottom of the screen, I can't found such button!!!

Who can help me? I have tried to delete "~/. Vscode" and software, and then decompress again, but the problem has not been solved!

BTW, my laptop system is ubuntu16.04, and the vscode version is v1.24.1.

Answer 1

If you move the Terminal split bar to the left (this will widen the Terminal window), the icon for Move to Bottom will appear.
