I wanted to see split the window vertically. I was able to achieve it using autocmd commad as : </p> <pre><code>:autocmd FileType qf wincmd L </code></pre> <p>But now height of file window and quickfix window reduces to 10. Is there a way to change this to max possible height ? </p> https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32908049/-/32908415#32908415 1 Answer by ryuichiro for quickfix window in vertical split with maximum height ryuichiro https://stackoverflow.com/users/5154907 2015-10-02T13:36:20Z 2015-10-02T14:50:05Z <p>If you need to adjust the height of pymode quickfix window, following <a href="https://github.com/klen/python-mode/blob/develop/doc/pymode.txt" rel="nofollow">documentation</a> you can try to change these settings in your <code>.vimrc</code></p> <pre><code>let g:pymode_quickfix_minheight = 3 let g:pymode_quickfix_maxheight = 6 </code></pre> <p>If you need just to open a quickfix window vertically, you can do so by using <a href="https://vimhelp.appspot.com/windows.txt.html#%3Avert" rel="nofollow"><code>:vert</code></a> command</p> <pre><code>:vert copen </code></pre>
