Module: window.navigation
Declared in: Window
Package: libtmux
Source: crates/libtmux/src/window/navigation.rs

last_pane ( self ) → Result<Option<Pane>, Error> method [source] ¶ method [source] ¶ last_pane

Move to the pane that was active before this one, and return it.

None when nothing else has been active yet, which a window holding one pane never has. That is an ordinary state rather than a failure, so it is reported as absence; an error means tmux could not be reached or refused the move for some other reason.

Errors

Returns an error when tmux cannot be reached or refuses the move.

Examples

use libtmux::{SplitDirection, SplitOptions};

let guard = libtmux::test::TestServer::new().await?;
let session = guard.server().new_session("panes").await?;
let mut window = session.active_window().await?.expect("a window");

// One pane, so there is nowhere to go back to and nothing broke.
assert!(window.last_pane().await?.is_none());

window.split(SplitOptions::new(SplitDirection::Below).select()).await?;
assert!(window.last_pane().await?.is_some());

guard.shutdown().await?;
