How to hide the bottom panel, no matter which tab I'm on?


How can I hide and show the bottom panel with a single button press, regardless of which tab is currently active? Similar functionality as Cmd+B, which hides the left-hand bar no matter whether Explorer, Debug etc. is active.

I've found shortcuts to show/hide Problems (Cmd+Shift+M) or Output (Cmd+Shift+U), but these require two button presses to hide the bottom pane if it's not currently on those respective tabs.


Solution

  • By default in VSCode Ctrl/Cmd+J shows and hides the Panel, no matter which one you are focused on.
