In this post, I collect some useful tips for using Tmux.
In the following text, <prefix> means the prefix key for Tmux. If you haven’t
changed it, it will Ctrl-b by default.
To change the layout of panes in a Tmux windows, press <prefix><space>. It
will change between different layouts.
We may also use command select-layout (or selectl for short) instead.
Possible layouts are: even-horizontal, even-vertical, main-horizontal,
main-vertical, tiled.

To temporarily zoom in and zoom out a pane, press <prefix>z. It will toggle
the zoom state of current pane.
I have two vertical pane side by side in a window, and I want to create a new pane above these two panes, which will span the entire window width. Essentially, I want to change from the following layout:
+--------------+--------------+
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
+--------------+--------------+to the below layout:
+-----------------------------+
| |
+--------------+--------------+
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
+--------------+--------------+By default, split-window command only spans the width of current pane. We can
use the -f option to make the new pane span the entire window width. The help
for -f says that:
-f – create new pane spanning full window width or height
To make the new pane created above, we need to use -b option:
-b – create new pane left of or above target pane
Combining the two options, we can use the following command to create what we want:
# run the command after pressing <prefix>
:split-window -fbvSimilarly, if we have two pane one on the other, we want to create a new pane, and get the following layout:
+-----------------+-----------+
| | |
| | |
| | |
+-----------------+ |
| | |
| | |
| | |
+-----------------+-----------+we can use the following command:

To swap two panes in Tmux, first we need to check their index: press <prefix> + q
to show the pane index. Then we can use the tmux command swap-pane to swap
the two panes (tmux command mode are activated by pressing <prefix>, followed
by :). For example, if we want to swap pane 0 with pane 2, use the following
command:
Ref:
To make two panes have the same width in side by side position, press <prefix> Alt-1 or run command select-layout even-horizontal. To make two panes have
the same height and in top-down position, press <prefix> Alt-2 or run command:
select-layout even-vertical.
