How to Display VS Code output window to side rather than below


In my VS Code set up I see the output/FSI frame below the main text editor pane like this:

enter image description here

whereas I would love it to appear to the right in the side-by-side view like it does on the images in this link: http://www.wintellect.com/devcenter/jwood/a-quick-look-at-f-in-visual-studio-code

Is there a config option I cannot find somewhere?

I tried Googling but drew a blank and cannot see anything obvious in the config options mentioned on the vs code site page describing the config options


Solution

  • I don't believe you can detach/move the output windows in Visual Studio Code. You can move the side bar to the left/right side, but that's it. There is no config option, sorry.

    You could try posting a feature request on the GitHub page: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode

    EDIT: This was changed in VS Code 0.10.8, it was once on the side but was moved to the bottom. See this GitHub issue: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/2806
