Describe the enhancement you want to request
Please add a Desktop/Web “Wide Mode” setting so the chat/session content can use the full available window width.
Right now the desktop app caps the session/chat content width and leaves large empty margins on wide windows. This is frustrating enough that I keep using the TUI instead of the desktop app. The narrow centered column is a major blocker for switching to desktop.
Why this matters:
- Wide monitors waste significant screen space.
- Code blocks, diffs, and tool output wrap sooner than necessary.
- The terminal/TUI experience feels much better because it uses available width.
- Desktop should let users decide whether they want a readable centered column or full-width workspace.
Expected behavior:
- Add a setting like “Wide Mode” in Desktop/Web settings.
- Keep current centered layout as default if preferred.
- When enabled, session timeline, sticky header, and composer should align and use full available session panel width.
- Optionally expose config via
opencode.json if app settings are not preferred.
