How to zoom and restore a pane

Published by BetterStage · Instructions for our macOS app; detailed feature reference is linked below.

Method

Pane menu

  1. 1

    Turn TabStack on, then open pane ⋯ and choose Zoom Pane.

  2. 2

    The same control becomes Restore Panes while zoomed.

Method

Snap Wheel

  1. 1

    Use the Snap Wheel outer-ring top slot — it is labeled Zoom Pane in TabStack, not Full.

Switching tabs in the same pane stays zoomed. Focusing a tab in another pane restores first.
