Some way to exit out of focused mode #12921

Closed

Description

Description of the new feature/enhancement

I have noticed when I wanted to go into focused mode for Terminal, I could not find any way to exit out of focused mode. Instead I had to uninstall it and install it back via Powershell and that can get a bit fustrating if you constantly have to uninstall/install Terminal every time you go into focused mode.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

I was thinking that maybe a keyboard shortcut such as the below to switch out of focused mode so that when the user presses them, the "taskbar" at the top of the Terminal application shows up
alt+x
or
alt+shift+x

Please tell me if I need to include any more details :)

    You can set keyboard shortcut by yourself. Like this:

      "actions": [
        {
           ....
        },
        {
          "command": "toggleFocusMode",
          "keys": "alt+t"
        }
      ],

    Yea there's already an action to toggle focus mode. You can open the command palette with ctrl+shift+p, then type "fomo", and that should give you the "toggle focus mode" action.

    toggle-fomo

    Sorry that you've had to uninstall the terminal to get out of it 😨
