Sharing a session between terminals of different sizes

[glasser]

I'd like to check my understanding of something. Are these two things both true?

• You can't move tabs between sessions.
• If you connect two terminals to the same session and your windows are different sizes, it will choose the smaller size even if they're on different tabs.

Basically I'm wondering if there's a nice way to do "I have two tabs in my session now and I'd like to view one on my laptop and one full-screen on my big monitor and have them both use the space efficiently" — I think the answer is no? I have to have already decided when I created the tab in the first place that I want it to be separate?

Both are accurate today. Zellij syncs viewport size across attachments, so the smallest client dictates the canvas for everyone. Per-tab independent sizing is tracked in #1040-ish territory but not implemented. Workaround is what you said — plan the split at tab creation time, or run two separate sessions and swap between them with zellij attach.

Any news? this makes Zellij (tmux as well) quite useless for in-terminal team collaboration.

This is already implemented in main, #5133.
