What's Wrong?

In Claude Desktop for Windows, when I try to answer the question "What best describes your work?" in settings, I am unable to select "Engineering" when I use my preferred Windows text size of "Medium". When I use text size "Default", the drop down works. Also, when text size is Medium, the first option of "Product management" can be selected, but I have to very carefully position my mouse to make it selectable. When text size is Default, all options are selectable easily.

Windows Text size settings:

Not fully functional drop down with Medium text size selected:

Fully functional drop down with Default text size selected:

  • Windows 11
  • Claude Desktop 1.7196.0.0

What Should Happen?

I should be able to easily select any option from the drop down menu.
