If you maximize the panel (i.e your maximized terminal), it always opens the fully maximized Chat pane upon toggling it closed.
This completely covers the screen and i’m unable to jump back and forth between code and the maximixed terminal. This is pretty bad for my workflow. It happens whether the chat pane is open or not.
Steps to Reproduce
Open cursor,
Maximize the panel,
Close the panel,
New Chat takes up screen
Expected Behavior
Like vscode (or previous cursor version). I close the maximized terminal and I’m returned to the code screen i was looking at. Chat pane doesn’t become randomly maximized.
Hey, thanks for the report. The video really helps, the bug reproduces clearly.
This is an issue with how the panel maximization state interacts with the chat state. When you close a maximized terminal, the system incorrectly thinks the chat was maximized and shows it fullscreen.
I’ve passed this to the team. There’s no ETA right now, but your report helps with prioritization.
Currently , when i close max terminal panel, the chat panel will show max by default and it seems like can not configure . I dont want to back to a max chat panel . Thanks
just bumpin this as I’m still seeing this issue. Basically just use an external terminal now, but would rather be using the integrated terminal as its much nicer in workspaces and working on codebases via ssh.
Hey, I see this issue is still happening. It’s frustrating that you have to use an external terminal because of it.
This bug is on our radar, but we don’t have an ETA yet.
As a temporary workaround, you can try using the hotkey to close the panel with Cmd+J instead of toggle maximize, or close the terminal with Cmd+` and then switch back. Not ideal, but it might help until we have a fix.
