As pictrue,I think you can understand me. I try to set .vimrc for taglist:
let Tlist_Use_Horiz_Window=1
or
let Tlist_Use_Right_Window = 1
it does work of course.
I try to C+W + H|J|K|L,fail again...
There is a vim plugin 'winmanager'. It can set the layout like your description. There are lots of blogs introducing how to set it work with NERDTree and taglist/tagbar. Well, there are also some complaints that winmanager is not under good maintenance . Sometimes it needs modification to the source code to work with NERDTree.
I would suggest you try winmanager first. If it does not work, you may try my stupid but useful work around:
function! ToggleNerdtreeTagbar()
" check if NERDTree and Tagbar are opened
let NERDTree_close = (bufwinnr('NERD_tree') == -1)
let Tagbar_close = (bufwinnr('__Tagbar__') == -1)
TagbarToggle
NERDTreeToggle
if NERDTree_close && Tagbar_close
wincmd K
wincmd b
wincmd L
wincmd h
exe 'vertical resize 30'
endif
endfunction
nmap <C-e> :call ToggleNerdtreeTagbar()<CR>
This will work if 1) taglist or tagbar is on the leftside, 2) you open only one a window at first, then press CTRL-e. You can open other windows then.
