Maximising exposure to information is what drives everything from multi-threading to pixel density and yes, even multi-screen & cross device applications. Click on the + icon in the terminal window. Enable Windows Subsystem for Linux on your Windows 10 machine. A definitive must have on split screen 1 portrait, 1 landscape. This would also allow me to better manage and work whilst on the move where I'd only have my main screen available to work from, like on a train or at customer sites. Since there are multiple approaches to this that could be taken, and multiple open issues that have been combined into this one, I hope they will at least provide some guidance on what approach they prefer here so this feature request doesn't get bogged down by unproductive discussion. @ruippeixotog I don't think atom supports detachable tabs. Here we work with back-end and front-end at the same time. I'm not sure why this feature never gets progressed as it has massive support and given code is electron app it's perfectly doable and degradable if you ever ran outside of electron. Dragging tabs outside the VS Code window currently copies the file (or a shortcut to it?) Nice to see others wanting the same. Got tired of adjusting the problems/output/terminal window up and down. It is a pity that this seemingly has no high priority. The VScode team has responded to this topic to discuss the difficulty. Request: Please close this issue for comments. +1 Op 9 jan. 2018 3:15 a.m. schreef Roy Tinker notifications@github.com: Each terminal has an entry with its name, icon, color, and group decoration (if any). Mostly I just don't like the default positions of the panes and want to move them around. To the VS code team, please never "fix" this bug (unless you add multi-window support ofc). The main benefit of this feature is opening terminal/output/problems on another monitor, so you can have a list of errors separately from the code window. Since, chrome creates a new process for every tab. Tip: Ctrl+F can be sent to the shell by removing the workbench.action.terminal.focusFind command from commands to skip shell. You don't have to move your eyes left and right and up and down, you just directly stare at the middle of the screen and use mouse to move relevant content to middle of the screen. I'm sure this issue is on the team's radar (it is the number one requested feature). Basicaly, it creates base64 encoded string as URL for window: https://github.com/illBeRoy/ElectronScriptWindow/blob/master/src/index.js#L76 on load. An example of this is the GitLens extension detecting Git branch links. Only solution would be to move electron to work on some other framework entirely. Reddit and its partners use cookies and similar technologies to provide you with a better experience. Right now I have to open a new VSCode and manually reopen the file. +1. The split pane functionality is nice but not the same. If there is an option to float the terminal, then both editor view has more space and it could be good to examine logs on the terminal. I'd say that's a personal preference, but hey, this thing has 237 upvotes vs 7 downvotes, so yeah. You are receiving this because you commented. I assigned the keybinding Ctrl + Shift + N for this command. instantiates/orchestrates these processes. It needs to be implemented. Awesome IDE nonetheless Sharing single workspace processes across multi-window opened files. @Krzysztof-Cieslak I think +1 is related to a vote rather than a discussion. How to change the default terminal profile in Visual Studio Code Find the nvm initialization script and run which npm before it runs, which should print the path when you launch a new terminal. This is only done when the shell does not support "bracketed paste mode". The Tasks feature can be used to automate the launching of terminals, for example, the following .vscode/tasks.json file will launch a Command Prompt and PowerShell terminal in a single terminal group when the window starts: This file could be committed to the repository to share with other developers or created as a user task via the workbench.action.tasks.openUserTasks command. To me it seems as though it should be a base feature of any modern IDE. For example, "'Fira Code', monospace" will configure Fira Code as the primary font and monospace as the fallback when it lacks glyphs. Would love to be able to use VScode on both monitors and split files between them. Perhaps I'll look closer into the sources and figure out if this would be a good way of doing it. Good news - this has moved up to #13 in feature requests sorted by upvotes. Why is this still not a thing ! This requires a bit of rearchitecting the internals of vscode, so let's be patient (or contribute). or maybe they just don't want to make too strong competition for Visual Studio ;-}. https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/2397125/26831065/5b8f145c-4acb-11e7-8f81-fe25512708cd.gif, Desired Behavior: Kiddo, do you live behind the moon or are you just trolling? Been watching for this feature for a while, just adding another voice saying I really wish this would happen! I think it is high time, at least for a definitive statement: @Hypernut Actually the votes for this issue only really started to take off around December last year. Configure your default profile by running the Terminal: Select Default Profile command, which is also accessible via the new terminal dropdown. If this doesn't get added to the vscode roadmap soon, I think I'll find a new IDE. Juni 2018 um I would love to see the ability to detach the console (and other parts of the editor) and push them across to a separate screen allowing me to get the full real estate of my main screen for writing and reading my code when I'm working somewhere with multiple screens/. https://www.npmjs.com/package/electron-window-manager, https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/10121#issuecomment-334327742, https://github.com/notifications/unsubscribe-auth/AD90FFy4E1Ra3EKfLfwh026vvezYp9FJks5spCT2gaJpZM4JckZO, https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aissue%20is%3Aopen%20sort%3Areactions-%2B1-desc%20label%3Afeature-request, https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/3527695/31317649-71a530b2-ac4d-11e7-9531-6fe2d4a2e967.gif, https://gearburn.com/2016/06/space-vr-app-turns-the-htc-vive-oculus-rift-into-a-productivity-hub/, https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-11-16/how-working-in-vr-could-make-you-more-productive, https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/mar/24/andreessen-horowitz-london-virtual-reality-startup-improbable, https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/2686#issuecomment, https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/wiki/Roadmap, https://hackernoon.com/using-a-react-16-portal-to-do-something-cool-2a2d627b0202, https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/10121#issuecomment-348621220, https://github.com/notifications/unsubscribe-auth/AAqQmoLrUY4l5H5xwroWCytBbgT2LIL_ks5s8HIqgaJpZM4JckZO. It also means I don't have to babysit the window management as much as I don't have to remember which is the "real" project window. Terminals often have contrast issues due to some conflict with dark/light themes, ANSI colors or shells/programs running, and more. Hope we will get this eventually, this is a must have :). In fact, you don't have to do anything, you just use VSCode as is. 12:22 Uhr: @Deltatiger https://github.com/Deltatiger Is this shipped already? How to Open VS Code from the Terminal. This approach means multiple monitors are easily supported. Op 5 okt. @bpasero by technical limitation do you say that it's a Electron limitation? The terminal view can be maximized by clicking the maximize panel size button with the upwards chevron icon. To disable this feature, you can set: See the minimum contrast ratio section for more information. The "app" is an OS-specific container that instantiates/orchestrates these processes. Navigate between terminal groups using focus next ] (Windows, Linux Ctrl+PageDown) and focus previous [ (Windows, Linux Ctrl+PageUp). Will this be implemented anytime soon? I'd rather the Visual Studio (proper) team become better at supporting client-side application development/debugging. I was just trying to help with a temporary workaround that I use while waiting for this feature. Please stop suggesting "Duplicate workspace". Version 1.74 is now available! On a proper workstation I use Visual Studio. Why not set up a crowdfunding for it? This is important when referencing code, but also for things like Markdown Preview. Terminal Don't double post please. @Krzysztof-Cieslak There should be a option to disable comments on an issue and only allow reactions to the OP. You can move tabs between windows but you cannot create a new window by dragging a tab out. This would not be movable outside of that WebView but at least you can freely position it within that. Only 68 more votes and this will be in the top 5 feature requests. When I try to open the same workspace in Mac OSX it always just focuses the already open window. I still don't get it why you are against it. @jez9999 Yes I understand that, as I understand also that it's not a simple feature to add and maintain in the future.

But why do you feel the need to "set expectations"? If VS code could implement this, it would be the perfect editor!! A workaround in the mean time is to open two windows, open a parent folder and a child folder of the same project. This works pretty nice for me :sweat_smile: Which means what exactly? @tavuntu The problem with commenting simply with +1 makes useless clutter and spams people who watches this issue with a useless notification. Sometimes silence is worse than a negative answer. Well done, linking some unrelated to IDEs (or text editing in general) links to the VR hype articles in such respectable computer science / software engineering medias as Guardian and Bloomberg totally shows your point of view. There's no such thing as a "main" window in Xcode. @RoyTinker Im pretty sure there are good reasons why its not yet started. A terminal's "status", if any, is signified by an icon that appears on the right of the tab. There might not be a clean or clear way of doing it across all platforms. Well occasionally send you account related emails. I only asked if there are any estimates from people looking after this repo. Flake it till you make it: how to detect and deal with flaky tests (Ep. Having the option to use this or not would be much better than not having a choice at all, quite frankly. versus if the feature is built in later, when code would have become more complex due to "required features". If coders can't figure out how to toggle a feature on or off, perhaps they are using the wrong software. To subscribe to this RSS feed, copy and paste this URL into your RSS reader. Do you honestly think the vscode team would merge something that changes their product at such a fundamental level when they're not directing it? For example: If you wanted to open a project folder in VSCode, its easy with the command prompt. Imho it would not work to have each of the floating windows be fully isolated as they are now. The topic is no longer about what we want or why, but how we can implement it, so let's try to keep the conversation positive and focussed on how to help implement this feature. That would require the VSCode team to publicly discuss a plan for implementing this highly requested functionality. I think that we should try to do VSC more modular and prepare some kind of multi-window mechanism before we start work on floating windows with single UI parts. @RoyTinker Perhaps we can discuss the merits of floating in-process versus separate instances? I suggest floating windows option for: This way we could take advantage of large screen space and / or multi monitors. So can Ctrl-Click on one monitor, and see corresponding code on another. Hey, yes that is a known workaround (like opening the project multiple times) and is stated above somewhere in the comments. The terminal is not still as useful as the traditional command prompt. But for me ergonomically very uncomfortable and tiring to a degree that makes me leaving it be again. You can learn more about configuring terminal shells in the terminal profiles article. I don't see a value to dramatically increase complexity if the same functionality can be achieved by spawning a new process. Terminal selection can be forced by holding the Alt key on Windows and Linux, this can also be done with the Option key on macOS but requires enabling the terminal.integrated.macOptionClickForcesSelection setting first. If I don't like bread, no one should eat it! I feel that Xcode does this really well if you're looking for inspiration. I suggest floating windows option for: Terminal; Debug console; Problems; Output; Eventually: tabs; Explorer / search / debug / git / extensions; This way we could take advantage of large screen space and / or multi monitors. I totally need and support this feature! Allow debug-actions-widget position adjustable and configurable. EDIT: Comment link here: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/10121#issuecomment-339404507 I would suspect this implies some heavy rewriting of a bunch of core features. The default terminal.integrated.gpuAcceleration value of "auto" tries the WebGL, canvas, and DOM renderers sequentially, settling at the first without detected issues. I too used to love to rip tabs and windows out from Visual Studio; I'm on a Mac now and using VSCode. Nah, by now they are used to ignoring the issue. We need the workspace explorer duplicated as well. I've attached below a typical example of what my third screen looks like (in hopes that it helps) -- apologies for the obfuscated text: By the way, I was under the impression that most of the panel docking stuff that Visual Studio does was built-in to .NET, is it really that difficult to implement this? They have to create a new windows each time you drag a tab into it's own window, and obviously this isn't an easy thing to do. They are also putting out a new grid feature. I'm a bit disappointed that it was never a design consideration from the Same as most people here : That's quite a clever way of doing it. which means each window is a separate chromium process, accompanied by some Yes it is free. Yeah, I'd say this feature falls firmly in the "Happy coding" category. To be helpful -- what would be useful to me is not just being able to open files on multiple screens, but being able to dock any kind of panel anywhere in the IDE (including popping them out to new windows which can be moved to new screens).
