Resizable Vertical Terminal Tabs
In the vertical-tabs terminal layout, drag the tab sidebar to the width that reads best and double-click the handle to reset it. The width is remembered per project.
Why You Need This
How this feature boosts your daily productivity
Long session titles get truncated in a fixed-width tab list, so you can't tell your terminals apart at a glance. Making the vertical tab list resizable lets you widen it until every title is readable — or keep it compact on a scratch project — and 1DevTool remembers your choice for each project so you set it once.
How It Works
Get started in 4 simple steps
Switch to vertical tabs
Use the vertical-tabs terminal layout where terminal tabs run down a sidebar.
Drag the edge
Grab the sidebar handle and drag it to the width where your session titles read cleanly.
Double-click to reset
Double-click the handle to snap the tab list back to its default width.
Keep it per project
1DevTool remembers the width for each project, so a repo with long titles stays wide while others stay compact.
