Description#

Apply a named preset or a captured window Layout string. Mode accepts Spread , Next or Previous . The native core rejects unknown or ambiguous preset names before dispatch. Without PassThru, emit no success output; with it, return a replacement Window and leave the original capture unchanged.

Notes

Restoring a classic layout restores pane sizes but can rotate pane placement on tmux 3.7 and earlier. It does not guarantee the same pane IDs occupy the same positions. A disappeared target or stale generation writes a per-target error. Use -ErrorAction Stop to terminate. Cancellation cannot undo an already dispatched change.
