Describe the Bug

Dear Community,

Do you know a way of reducing the minimum-width of the right side-bar (I put the Chat there).

I am using Cursor 2.1.46 (windows)

I tried to reduce the width, but the interface has a minimum width limit,
below which I can not reduce the sidebar.

Thank you very much for your help.

Steps to Reproduce

Put Chat on the right sidebar
Tried to reduce width to the minimum

Expected Behavior

I expected Cursor to allow me to reduce the sidebar to a minimum of just a few pixels

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, thanks for the report. The minimum width of the right sidebar (Chat) is hardcoded right now, and you can’t make it smaller than that threshold - there’s no separate setting or workaround.
