claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix [BUG] Typing in the input box scrolling up clears the draft [1 comments, 2 participants]

Error Messages/Logs

TL;DR

The issue can be potentially fixed by modifying the input box to not intercept scroll or arrow keys when the cursor is mid-text, or by increasing the height of the input box to accommodate longer messages.

Guidance

• Verify that the issue is specific to the Sonnet model by trying other models to see if the behavior changes.
• Check if there are any existing configuration options in Claude Code for VS Code to adjust the input box behavior or height.
• Consider reporting this issue to the Anthropic API team to see if there are any known workarounds or fixes on their end.
• Test the issue in a different environment, such as a different operating system or code editor, to determine if the issue is specific to the current setup.

Notes

The issue may be related to the specific version of Claude Code for VS Code (v2.1.128) or the Sonnet model, and further investigation is needed to determine the root cause.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Increase the height of the input box or modify its behavior to not intercept scroll or arrow keys when the cursor is mid-text, as this is likely to mitigate the issue until a permanent fix is available.
