Is this a reproducible bug?
Current behavior
In resize mode (prefix+r), a pane only resizes toward the side where it has a neighbor. In a two-pane split, the left pane responds only to right/l and the right pane only to left/h. The opposite key does nothing. Same on the vertical axis (top resizes on down only, bottom on up only).
Expected behavior
Both opposing keys should resize the focused pane: one grows it, the other shrinks it (like tmux/zellij). Pressing toward the outer wall should shrink the pane instead of doing nothing.
Reproduction
- Split a pane once so you have
left | right.
- Focus the left pane, enter resize mode (
prefix+r).
- Press
l/right repeatedly and the divider moves. Press h/left and nothing happens.
- Focus the right pane. Now
h/left works and l/right does nothing.
Impact
You can only ever grow the focused pane, never shrink it. To shrink one you have to focus its neighbor and grow that instead. Awkward to recover a layout once panes stack up.
Environment
- Herdr version: 0.6.9
- Update channel (stable or preview): stable
- Operating system: macOS 26.3.1 (arm64)
- Terminal: iTerm2
- Shell, if relevant: zsh
