I am used to program having the file browser on the left of the code and the outline on the right. However, in Visual Studio Code it seems that I can only have both things on the same side. Is there any way to have them in different sides (like in the image, that comes from eclipse)?
Thanks,
DMR
Coming to Stable v1.64, see Release Notes: Side Panel so no need for the
experimentalsettings.
Note that this second Side Bar is currently known as the Side Panel.
You can drag various views into the Side Panel like the Outline or SCM views. I would expect that more will be added later.
Demos:
This icon on the upper right was recently: it is a Layout Control icon.
Customize Layout Control
With all these new layout options, we have been exploring ways to better expose layout configuration for discoverability and ease of use. That's why you might notice a new experimental layout control in your title bar. Note this only appears if your
window.titleBarStylesetting is custom andworkbench.experimental.layoutControl.enabledis set to true. The enablement is controlled by an experiment, but if you want to enable it manually, you can do so in the Settings editor.The contents of the menu are still being worked on, but currently you should see the ability to toggle the Side Bar, Panel, and Side Panel. Additionally, you will see an entry for a new command Customize Layout. This new command triggers a new interactive quick pick experience allowing you to control all aspects of layout configuration in one place.
----------- With v1.65:
we are adding some options for everyone to try out with the setting
workbench.experimental.layoutControl.type. This setting has the following options:Menu: This is the previous behavior with a single button that opens a menu.
Toggles: This is a new option which shows three buttons to toggle the panel, side bar, and side panel.
Both: This is a new option which shows the toggles followed by the menu button which still allows you to fairly quickly access the customize layout quick pick.
