window.Window.select_layout

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

select_layout ( mut , layout : impl Into<LayoutSpec> ) → Result<&mut Self, Error> method [source] ¶ method [source] ¶ select_layout

Set the window's pane layout.

Takes a [ Layout ] tmux knows by name, or a layout string tmux itself produced through LayoutSpec::Saved . A &str, String, or OsString is read as a saved layout, so a caller who already had one keeps working.

Errors

Returns an error when tmux refuses the layout, and crate::ErrorKind::UnsupportedVersion when a named layout needs a newer tmux than this endpoint runs. See Layout::minimum_release .

Examples

use libtmux::Layout;

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

window.select_layout(Layout::Tiled).await?;

guard.shutdown().await?;
