Preflight Checklist

  • I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
  • This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
  • I am using the latest version of Claude Code

What's Wrong?

The main content area in the Claude Code Mac desktop app has its left side clipped/cut off. Text in both the conversation area and the input field is partially hidden behind what appears to be a layout misalignment with the sidebar.

For example:

  • Message text starting with "There's this issue..." renders as "sue that's happening..."
    • "tokens" renders as "okens"
      • The input placeholder "commands" renders as "nmands" The sidebar itself renders correctly. The clipping affects the entire content panel consistently.

What Should Happen?

The entire content area should be visible with no clipping. All text in messages, responses, and the input field should render fully from left edge to right edge of the content panel.

Error Messages/Logs

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open Claude Code Mac desktop app
  2. Start a new conversation or open an existing one
  3. Observe the main content area — the left portion of all text is clipped/hidden
  4. The clipping affects message text, token counts, and the input field placeholder
  5. The sidebar renders normally; only the content panel is affected

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue can likely be resolved by adjusting the layout or CSS styling of the content panel to ensure proper alignment with the sidebar.

Guidance

  • Verify that the issue persists across different conversations and input fields to confirm it's a widespread layout problem.
  • Check the application's CSS or layout configuration files for any recent changes that might have introduced the clipping issue, focusing on the content panel and sidebar alignment.
  • Test the application on different macOS versions or screen resolutions to see if the issue is specific to a particular environment.
  • Consider comparing the current version's (2.1.109) layout settings with those of the last known working version to identify potential differences.

Example

No specific code example can be provided without access to the application's source code, but adjusting the CSS margin or padding of the content panel might resolve the issue, e.g., content-panel { margin-left: 10px; }.

Notes

The lack of information about the last working version and specific error messages/logs limits the ability to provide a precise fix. The solution might involve updating the application's layout settings or CSS styles.

Recommendation

Apply a workaround by adjusting the layout settings or CSS styles, as the root cause seems related to a layout misalignment rather than a version-specific bug that could be fixed by upgrading.
