How to change the position of pane in Tmux

To change pane 4 to pane 3 after pane 3 exits:

C-b {          move the current pane to the previous position

Here are more shortcuts for moving panes around:

C-b }          move the current pane to the next position
C-b C-o        rotate window ‘up’ (i.e. move all panes)
C-b M-o        rotate window ‘down’
C-b !          move the current pane into a new separate
               window (‘break pane’)
C-b :move-pane -t :3.2
               split window 3's pane 2 and move the current pane there
