## Description[#](https://libtmux.org/en/tmux/3.7c/catalog/options/aggressive-resize/#description)

Aggressively resize the chosen window. This means that `tmux` will resize the window to the size of the smallest or largest session (see the [`window-size`](https://libtmux.org/en/tmux/3.7c/catalog/options/window-size/) option) for which it is the current window, rather than the session to which it is attached. The window may resize when the current window is changed on another session; this option is good for full-screen programs which support `SIGWINCH` and poor for interactive programs such as shells.
