[FEATURE]: Add desktop wide mode to use full available chat width #29408
I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.
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.
