78
- - `Alt+/` toggles focus between BTW and the main editor without closing the overlay
79
- - `Ctrl+Alt+W` is a fallback focus toggle for terminals that do not deliver `Alt+/` as a usable shortcut
80
- - `Esc` still dismisses BTW immediately while the overlay is focused
82
+ - `Alt+w` toggles the overlay between the framed window layout (inset from the terminal edges) and a full-width layout
83
+ - full-width mode makes terminal Shift+drag selection capture only the dialog's own text, which is handy for copying without pulling in surrounding main-screen content
84
+ - window mode keeps the full box frame; full-width mode drops the side borders and corner glyphs (keeping only horizontal rules) so those border columns never land inside a drag selection
85
+ - `Alt+/`, `Super+/`, or `Ctrl+Alt+W` toggles focus between BTW and the main editor without closing the overlay
86
+ - `Super+/` requires a terminal that reports the Super modifier, typically through the Kitty keyboard protocol
87
+ - `Ctrl+Alt+W` remains a fallback for terminals that do not deliver either primary shortcut
88
+ - set the `PI_BTW_FOCUS_KEYS` environment variable to remap these when they conflict with your window manager or terminal
89
+ - the value is a comma-separated list of pi-tui key identifiers such as `PI_BTW_FOCUS_KEYS="ctrl+/,ctrl+alt+b"`; it replaces the defaults entirely
90
+ - identifiers combine `ctrl`, `shift`, `alt`, and `super` with a single base key (letter, digit, symbol, or named key like `enter`/`f5`); blank or invalid entries are ignored, and the defaults are kept if none are usable
91
+ - while BTW is streaming, the first `Esc` aborts the request and keeps its partial transcript visible; press `Esc` again to dismiss
92
+ - while BTW is idle, `Esc` dismisses the overlay immediately
