    Except it's not always there. I've run into this before, and it's incredibly frustrating. How about a keyboard shortcut to restore four even-sized panes or something? Check it out, it's really not there: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/w2ek94xsokghk4n/rstudio-issue.png

    The problem is somehow associated with the project I'm working in. If I quit the project, the "gripper" returns, but if I reopen the project, the upper-left pane expands (animated) to occupy the whole window. I can get upper and lower panes with the button in the upper-right, but I can't get left and right panes.

    The issue was with zooming to single panes. This is fixed In the View -> Panes menu, or ctrl-shift-0 to zoom to all panes.

    This issue is preposterously frustrating. The grabber disappeared for me as well.

    View -> Panes was the solution - thanks Michael.

    I have just installed RStudio. I have no environment tab, and there is no View menu from which to select Panes. Also no gripper. This is on a Mac.

    Hello,

    I seem to have the same error as the previous post.
    I am running version 3.4.2 but cannot see or open an environment window.

    Looked through every menu option but nothing seems to solve this problem.

    Thanks for your help,

    Neil.

    Missing gripper and cannot perform any of the "show" functions under the View tab.

    RStudio v1.1.419
    R v3.4.1

    I figured it out.

    Go to View -> Panes -> Show all Panes

    A solution that I just found. On the top bar of the window click:

    View -> Panes -> Show all panes

    Or alternatively use the shortcut Ctrl+Alt+Shift+0
