      • Short answer: Yes — the command ID is workbench.action.toggleMaximizedPanel, available in Keyboard Shortcuts (Cmd+K Cmd+S on Mac or Ctrl+K Ctrl+S on Windows/Linux).
      • Steps to bind it:
        • 1. Open Keyboard Shortcuts: Cmd+K Cmd+S (Mac) or Ctrl+K Ctrl+S (Windows/Linux), or via F1 → Preferences: Open Keyboard Shortcuts
        • 2. Search for toggleMaximizedPanel or Toggle Maximized Panel
        • 3. Click the + icon next to View: Toggle Maximized Panel and enter your desired key chord
      • Command palette name: View: Toggle Maximized Panel
      • Command ID: workbench.action.toggleMaximizedPanel
      • JSON snippet (for keybindings.json):
        • json

          {
            "key": "ctrl+shift+m",
            "command": "workbench.action.toggleMaximizedPanel"
          }

      • This toggles the panel (terminal, output, problems, etc.) between its normal docked size and a maximized state covering the editor area. The UI button in the panel toolbar (the corners/expand icon) triggers the same command.
