+# Reclaiming The Entire Window
+
+If you have attached to a tmux session whose dimensions are being
+constrained by another connection, you may find an L-shaped portion of your
+window filled with dots. tmux defers to the session with smaller dimensions.
+The easiest way to reclaim the entire window for your session is to attach
+to the session will forcing all other session to detach. The `-d` flag will
+help with that.
+
+```bash
+$ tmux attach-session -d -t my-session
+```
+
+By detaching all other sessions, you are ensuring that your computers
+dimensions are the ones that tmux uses when drawing the window. This is a
+great quick fix if you're working on your own, but probably not what you
+want to do if you are in a pair programming situation.
