Bug Description Subject: Regression — Loss of attachments panel UX (multi-image workflow broken)

Hey team,

Wanted to flag a UX regression that started around v2.1.83, when the attachments panel was replaced with inline [Image #N] chips.

Two problems came bundled together:

  1. BUG — Multi-image drag-and-drop broken Dropping 2+ images at once only attaches the first one. Already tracked in #39416.

  2. UX REGRESSION — Loss of attachments panel Even if #39416 gets fixed, the new inline-chips design removes capabilities the old panel had. Concrete use cases I lost:

    • Staging multiple images BEFORE sending (I used to drop 10 screenshots, review them, then submit)
    • Selective removal — if image #2 and #5 were wrong, I could delete just those. Now I have to cancel the whole message and re-drop the correct 8.
    • Visual confirmation of what's queued — the chips in-chat don't show previews, just labels.

The old panel was genuinely better for image-heavy workflows (design reviews, bug reports with multiple screenshots, visual QA). The inline chips look cleaner but lose real functionality.

Request: please consider restoring the attachments panel, OR add selective-delete + preview to the inline chips before closing #39416. Otherwise fixing the multi-drag bug only gets us halfway back to parity.

Thanks — love the tool overall, just miss this specific flow.

extent analysis

TL;DR

Consider reverting the attachments panel replacement or enhancing the inline chips with selective deletion and preview capabilities to restore lost functionality.

Guidance

  • Review the design decisions behind replacing the attachments panel with inline chips to understand the trade-offs between UX and functionality.
  • Investigate the feasibility of adding selective deletion and preview features to the inline chips to address the reported use cases.
  • Evaluate the impact of restoring the old attachments panel on the overall user experience and potential regressions.
  • Assess the priority of fixing the multi-image drag-and-drop bug (#39416) in relation to the requested enhancements.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue focuses on UX and design decisions rather than specific code implementations.

Notes

The solution may depend on the specific requirements and priorities of the project, and a thorough evaluation of the trade-offs between different design approaches is necessary.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Enhance the inline chips with selective deletion and preview capabilities to address the reported use cases, as this approach seems to balance UX and functionality concerns.
