Visio "breaking" arrow - visio

Can anyone help me how to stop Visio doing what is in the left example (in the picture). If I put the above object not centered with the bellow object, the arrow is ok.

You should be able to right-click the connector and select Straight Connector.
Screenshot from Visio
Note that I moved the document object to show the difference between a straight-line connector and a right-angle connector. In my case, I was getting a straight line with both connectors if I center the document object.

First you can right click on the arrow and select "Straight Connector". If this is not working, then try the following.
You can add connector points to the below object wherever required so that the arrow can be straight vertically.
Click on X mark next to connector option, then hold the ctrl button and click on the object to place the connector end then connect the objects.
Hope this might solve your problem.

You can try fiddling with the Layout & Routing settings.
Right-click the Page Tab, then go to:
Page Setup > Layout and Routing > Routing
There are a bunch of settings for the style of chart, but have an extra look at the Style and Appearance drop-downs.
These settings govern the default layout/routing settings for the page.
Some of this can also be set via: Design > Layout > Re-layout Page and Design > Layout > Connectors

How to detach Outline from Explorer

Problem: Detaching the Outline section from Explorer and moving it to the right side.
Tried: right-clicking, changing the settings - cannot find where and how the Outline section be detached from Explorer.
Question: is it possible to detach the Outline Panel from Explorer Panel?
Is there another extension, which the same functionality as Outline, which could be placed on the right side?
Thank you!
This should be supported directly in VSCode 1.64 (Jan. 2022), with the new side panel.
New Side Panel
This milestone, we introduce the Side Panel, a new surface in the workbench to house views from the Side Bar or the bottom Panel appearing opposite the Side Bar.
Unlike the historical ability to move the bottom Panel to the left or the right of the editor, the new Side Panel works in addition to the bottom Panel so you can see more sets of views at once.
To use the Side Panel, you'll need to move some views over to it.
Based on one of our most upvoted feature requests, you might want to move Outline from the Side Bar to Side Panel.
You can do this by dragging and dropping the view into the Side Panel.
If the Side Panel is not open, just like the bottom Panel, dragging a view to the edge of the editor area, will pop it open.
Alternatively, you can use the Move View command for something more keyboard friendly.
Moving Outline View to the Side Panel:
Yes you can, click on the Outline Title Bar and you can move it to any other panel, even the bottom Problems/Terminal panel.
You don't need any special extension for it. Almost all panels can be moved around in VSCode
You cannot have a Floating Window however.
You also Cannot have Two Sidebars
If you want to have the sidebar to the right go to View - Appearance - Move Side Bar Right
As of now, no you cannot have two sidebars, this is the issue tracking that feature.
I can suggest an alternative, you can move the outline to the bottom panel, where the terminal is so that you can have both at the same time but just not as a sidebar.
like this:
or like this but attaching two Bottom Panel tabs together.
Here is a Demo on how to do it
So after a lot of searching, I finally came up with my own solution. Apologies in advance for the poor screenshot quality. I used Microsoft's Steps Recording not realizing the image compression would be so poor.
First, open up a new terminal (Ctrl+Shift+`)
Make sure that the terminal tab is active in the panel. Right click the terminal name on the right-hand side and select "Move into editor area.
"
You can then right-click the now-tabbed Terminal in your editor space and select "Split down."
Your editor should look like the image below. However, we're not done yet! Here's where the magic happens. Open another terminal.
Things will look weird but this is going to work.
Click the "Outline" header in the sidebar and drag it into the bottom terminal panel:
Sidebar > (Outline) > Terminal Panel
Next, right-click on the tab bar of the bottom panel and select "Move Panel Right"
Et voila! You should how have a sidebar on the left, and Outline on the right, and a Terminal on the bottom!

Is it possible to duplicate the visual code side bar?

I don't know a way to duplicate the visual code side bar. I would find it useful to be able to open different views at the same time as it happens in eclipse Theila (both share same source code)
Eclipse Theila
See my newer answer at https://stackoverflow.com/a/69329503/836330
You can put another panel on the right, in addition to the Side Bar and Panel. And then drag various views into it.
Put the Panel on the right. Right-click on one of the headers, like "Terminal" and select `Move Panel Right".
Drag your "Outline" header into that right Panel.

How to align console panel to right in codesandbox?

I'd like to align the browser/test/console panel to the right side of the js panel.
First tried to drag them, but it didn't work.
Is there any way?
View > Editor Layout > Flip Full Layout
Moritz W's solution seems to do the trick but only temporarily. I noticed that when I close and re-open the sandbox - the location of the browser window goes back to it original bottom location.
One way to deal with this is to create a template with the browser window on the right.
Creating a template however does not mitigate the situation when you are forking someone else's code. To persist the location of the browser window you must change the settings like this: File / Preferences / CodeSandbox Settings > Open VSCode Settings > Workbench / Editor Management / Open Side By Side Direction > right
If you are confused - here is an imgur image to show you how to get there.
PSA - I am not entirely confident in this solution - please let me know in the comments if this worked for you.

Eclipse RCP View resize programmatically

I have a requirement in Eclipse RCP where I need to resize the views within my perspective, like select a particular view and press left arrow key to shrink it in width (simultaneously increase the width of the neighbor view) and same with right, top and bottom keys. I have been browsing for a while now to understand how we can resize a view programatically. I am sure eclipse has a command for this, but I am unable to find it. If I get this command than I can hook the hotkeys to this command or add a key binding.
Thanks in advance!
Editing my earlier comment to add additional details.
There is a context menu item called size (right click on any view name) -> rightcick -> Size -> top|bottom|left|right. These menu items are contributed by eclipse itself. But they are not always visible, we should be configuring the preference store in order to get this, I am unable to find this setting.Upon selecting either of the options there will be selectable object occuring in between the views (depending on the selected menu) and now on click of left or right | top or bottom keys we will be able to resize the view.
Please see the attached image. I got this image from a developer who has left the organization now.View Resize screenshot. Image of the selectable object

How to Display VS Code output window to side rather than below

In my VS Code set up I see the output/FSI frame below the main text editor pane like this:
whereas I would love it to appear to the right in the side-by-side view like it does on the images in this link: http://www.wintellect.com/devcenter/jwood/a-quick-look-at-f-in-visual-studio-code
Is there a config option I cannot find somewhere?
I tried Googling but drew a blank and cannot see anything obvious in the config options mentioned on the vs code site page describing the config options
as of version 1.51.1 right click in the right corner on the output panel. then select option 'move panel right'
I don't believe you can detach/move the output windows in Visual Studio Code. You can move the side bar to the left/right side, but that's it. There is no config option, sorry.
You could try posting a feature request on the GitHub page: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode
EDIT: This was changed in VS Code 0.10.8, it was once on the side but was moved to the bottom. See this GitHub issue: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/2806
This feature is not available yet in VS Code. However as of today (March 30, 2017) it's on 6 months roadmap so it should be done in a near feature.
This feature is available from version 1.18.0+
Simply click this icon to dock to the right:
Just follow the steps mentioned:
In Visual Studio Code -
View Tab > Appearance > Toggle Panel Position
That's it.
Your original link to the view your desire is obsolete, so it is a guess as to what you wanted. But here is a demo of setting up a terminal/output look side-by-side. It is a little tricky - you drag your Outline header over the Terminal header which will then allow you the option of putting it to the left or right of the Terminal:
its easy. just right-click on the terminal, select 'move panel right' like in the image below and voila
the image can be found here
Vertical Split:
From VS Code Menu bar:
View >> Appearance >> Move Panel Right
Version 1.47.0 of VS Code (at the moment of posting this, the latest one) allows you to drag output (or any other panel tab, e.g. terminal) to the activity bar. This way you can obtain output to the side of the editor.
Just right click on the panel of output section then select "Move panel left or right" as per your wish.
here your can see the move panel left option.
Press CTRL + SHIFT + P
Select Preferences: Open User Settings (JSON)
Insert (or change if it is there --search for it) the following config line:
"workbench.panel.defaultLocation": "right",
Save file.
That will work for new workspaces. VS-Code saves your preferences for each folder you start it in. So, if you navigate to a folder you previously called VS-Code in (I mean, from the terminal), it will open the output panel in the same location it was the last time you have used VS-Code from the same location.
After making the change above, go to a new place, like /opt and start VS-Code there to make a test.
