Cursor IDE
Describe the Bug
Cursor has come a long way since I started using it early 2025, it has become faster and cheaper at the same time in coding. But there is one particular interface feature that is absolutely driving me nuts!
It’s the way the side panel agent list nagivation window to the left that keeps getting triggered to open the second my mouse cursor even hover across it to get to another window in my screen, which let’s be honest as developers not only do we have to split the screen with other applications and folders, but extended monitors are a norm. Each time I swing and slide across the left side of Cursor, the damn side panel opens and covers up a good chunk of what I’m looking at. I tried to get used to it but if anyone is looking for something easy to fix, kindly relocate the hitbox for this panel somewhere else instead of lazily activating it for the entire left side of Cursor.
Steps to Reproduce
Moving your mouse across the left side of Cursor activates it to open and stay open until you slide over it again. It’s annoying!
Expected Behavior
Moving your mouse across the left side of Cursor activates it to open and stay open until you slide over it again. It’s annoying!
