pub async fn last_pane(&self) -> Result<Option<Pane>, Error>

Description#

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?;
