Atom-script: Is it possible to move the output panel to the right side?

[catbaron0]

The output panel is in a class of "bottom", but I can't find a way to change the position of the output panel.
Any help?

Seems it is needed to hack the atom-message-panel package...

There is no built-in options for this, sorry :(

[edencaldas]

Would love this too.

Agreed, this would make script much more user-friendly for those with wide screens.

Yep this would be a great idea, work around doesn't work for me or I'm just not doing it right

[GenericArt]

I too would love having the Output Panel on the side <3

[tiboine]

1516 is merged so we can close this issue.

The pull request #1516 does not provide an implementation of this. It only updates the version of the dependency in order to make such implementation possible. I am submitting an implementation in #2409, which makes it possible to configure the panel position. However, modifying the width (either interactively or by a setting) is still not possible, because the atom-message-panel package used for creating the panel does not support this.

For what it's worth, atom-message-panel is intended for displaying (probably short) messages, not program output. As a result, it's versatility is limited for our use-case: Fixed panel width and the inability to change the font size are the two insufficiencies which come to my mind now. Perhaps switching to another solution like output in a separate tab might be more user-friendly?
