How to resize split screen size in byobu

Question

Currently, my byobu split screens look like this (i.e. they are of unequal size -- the rightmost split size is much smaller than the leftmost split size, for example):

Is there a way to resize those splits? I want to make the rightmost split wider and the leftmost split narrower.

Note: for ctx's solution to work Ctrl-a needs to be byobu's escape sequence. This can be set by running byobu-ctrl-a — user8675309, Aug 26 '19 at 15:33

From the byobu help menu Shift + F1:

Use Shift+Alt+[←↑→↓].

The `Shift+Alt+(direction)` worked like a charm even using a BitVise SSH Client – Artfaith Oct 12 '20 at 06:51
