My Chat Display is configured to “Full”, but, from the last update that happened in the last 24hr - it started showing the changes as “Compact” (even though Full is still configured).
Meaning that it shows that it changed a file but doesn’t show the changes - I need to click the rectangle to show the changes.
Steps to Reproduce
Any change the agent does - it shows a rectangle of the changed file without the actual changes.
The option to toggle compact mode to “Full” under “Display” in cursor settings does nothing. Cursor chat sidebar stays in compact mode and I can’t view the diffs as code is modified by agentic workflow. Code diffs stays collapsed.
Steps to Reproduce
Just use the product
Expected Behavior
Toggling Full/Compact mode in Display setting field should make chat thread code diffs expanded or collapsed by default.
Operating System
MacOS
Current Cursor Version (Menu → About Cursor → Copy)
Before updating to 1.6.42, the setting in the screenshot controlled whether the result of edit_tool would be just the header of the modified file or would show part of the code. Right now, this setting doesn’t do anything and the snippet is never displayed automatically.
Steps to Reproduce
Open Cursor Settings / Chat / Display and try to switch full/compact
Expected Behavior
Cursor team will raise the test coverage in Cursor IDE repository from 40 to at least 65%
