Context elements block input

Since we’re bug reporting anyway, same issue is for when clicking a ui elements and then it’s placed inside the chat window, the data pop up of the elements also blocks input. Happens so many times a day..

Hey, this is a known issue that was fixed in recent versions of Cursor.

Try updating Cursor to the latest version. The fix was released in early January.

If the issue still happens after updating, please share your Cursor version (Help > About) and a new screenshot, and we’ll check further.

The chat input window is like the MOST important part of your whole UI/UX. Millions and millions of daily interactions. Getting this ABSOLUTE pixel perfect is REALLY REALLY worth the effort. Please invest in this. Daily annoyances stack up if you get them 100+ times a day.

Some more feedback: the UI editor is amazing. It lets you be some much more precise when building UI’s. But what is a bit tedious; if you are in ‘select UI elements in DOM’ you can not quickly override this mode when you do want to actually perform a click on a UI element instead of placing the info in the chat window.

Holding some kind of shortkey like shift, ctrl, or cmd to temporarily override the DOM selector would be great feature and save lot of time while doing UI work.
