I want to change the postion of a pane such as that I want to change pane 4 to pane 3 after pane 3 exits.
To move your tmux panes around on your window, you’ll want to use your prefix + ctrl + o. What this combination does is, cycles your panes positioning upwards. So if you’ve got three panes open in your window, hitting prefix + ctrl + o will move the panes in a clock-wise direction.
Ctrl b q (the tmux default prefix sequence plus q) will briefly display the pane indexes, if you enter the index number while they are displayed, your cursor will move to that pane.
To do so, switch to left pane and press <Tmux prefix> and z. The tmux prefix command is Ctrl+b, so I type Ctrl+b followed by z to zoom the pane. It is that simple! Note: To switch between panes, press Ctrl+b and Arrow keys (Left, Right, Up, Down). Here is the animated video shows zooming tmux panes.
To resize tmux panes, you’ll first want to hit your prefix — ctrl + b by default — and then the colon key :. What this does is brings up a prompt at the bottom of your screen. Now you’ll want to type in resize-pane in the prompt, followed by a hyphen - and either D, U, L, R.
To change pane 4 to pane 3 after pane 3 exits:
C-b { move the current pane to the previous position
Here are more shortcuts for moving panes around:
C-b } move the current pane to the next position
C-b C-o rotate window ‘up’ (i.e. move all panes)
C-b M-o rotate window ‘down’
C-b ! move the current pane into a new separate
window (‘break pane’)
C-b :move-pane -t :3.2
split window 3's pane 2 and move the current pane there
