Problem Statement

Hi, after you changed the UI yesterday, the "copy" button disappeared on the chatting window. I am using Claude Code window on MacOS. That's super inconvenient.

Proposed Solution

Adding the previous "copy" button back to the UI.

TL;DR

The "copy" button needs to be reinstated in the chatting window of the Claude Code window on MacOS after a recent UI change.

Guidance

  • Review the recent UI changes to identify what caused the "copy" button to disappear and assess the feasibility of reverting those changes.
  • Investigate alternative methods for copying text in the chatting window, such as keyboard shortcuts, to provide a temporary workaround.
  • Consider reaching out to the development team for assistance in reinstating the "copy" button or providing a suitable alternative.
  • Verify that the issue is specific to MacOS or if it affects other platforms as well to determine the scope of the fix.

Notes

The provided information lacks technical details about the UI change and the codebase, making it challenging to provide a precise fix. Further investigation and collaboration with the development team are necessary to resolve the issue.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Since the issue is critical and blocking work, applying a temporary workaround, such as using keyboard shortcuts for copying text, might be the most immediate solution until the "copy" button can be reinstated.
