Originally posted by wurli August 8, 2024 This would be really nice for cases when the traditional split screen doesn't offer enough real-estate, e.g. for viewing large tibbles etc. Personally I like to have my terminal open on another monitor entirely - VSCode/Positron already support this as shown, but unfortunately not yet with the console!

Loving Positron so far, thanks for all the work to create such an awesome free product!

FYI, has also been one of the most-upvoted and commented feature requests for RStudio for years. https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/issues/2833
