As a user, I want to be able to customize the panel placement of the IDE, specifically move the file viewer to be the left most pane and have the AI chat be the right most pane. Currently there is no option to do this that I can find.
Hi, as someone who has used many IDEs over 15+ years it is really hard to use cursor because having the AI Chat be on the left is a huge paradigm shift for an IDE. I want the ability to change / specify where the AI Chat window is and where the files are shown on the screen.
It causes me a lot of friction and I find myself preferring Webstorm’s IDE + chat window on the right to be more comfortable.
Hi @Cyan Thanks for the post! This is possible today, you just have to change your settings to be in the “Editor” Window layout. That is accessible under Cursor Settings → General → Layout. You may need to click the buttons to show the file browser (upper left hand corner arrow) as that may be hidden by default.
General” and in “
Appearance” and I don’t see an option like that
