Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, thanks for the report and the screen recording, it really helps.

This is a known issue with drag and drop on macOS. The team is aware, and your report helps us prioritize it.

For now, as a workaround, use @ in chat to add files from your project as context. For screenshots and images, you can use the image attach icon in chat, or just paste with Cmd+V if it’s already in your clipboard.

Let me know if anything else comes up.
