Fix / Workaround

In the Claude desktop app, text inside the Dispatch window (both user and Claude messages) is not selectable, so copying is impossible. This looks like a UI selection bug.

Steps to reproduce: Open Claude desktop app Open the Dispatch window Try to click and drag to select text in any message Observe no selection appears, and copy does not work

TL;DR

The issue can likely be resolved by reporting the regression to the development team, as it was working in a previous version.

Guidance

  • Verify that the issue persists across different messages and user interactions within the Dispatch window to rule out any specific message-related bugs.
  • Check if there are any known issues or discussions in the Claude Code community or GitHub issues that might be related to this regression.
  • Since this is identified as a regression, providing more details about the last working version could help the development team pinpoint the cause.
  • Consider reaching out to the development team directly with the provided steps to reproduce, as this could expedite the resolution process.

Notes

The lack of information about the last working version and any error messages/logs limits the ability to provide a more specific fix or workaround.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Report the issue to the development team with detailed reproduction steps, as this is a confirmed regression and direct developer input is likely necessary for a resolution.
