Set the workbench.activityBar.orientation setting to vertical and restart Cursor.

Thank you :pray:, this did indeed work. :+1:

It’s interesting that the Source Control Notifications aren’t available for the horizontal orientation.

Yep, that’s because setting it to ‘horizontal’ makes it use Cursor’s own custom UI, which was created when VSC itself didn’t have a horizontal activity bar orientation. But now VSC’s own horizontal activity bar works and looks better, in my opinion.

Can we have the badge on the source control icon, even in the horizontal setup.
Find it quite useful and like better the horizontal bar for more spacing.
By the way, thank you for your wonderful job on this product.

Is adding a comment here the appropriate way to add support for having source control notification work in horizontal mode?

Use Cases:

  1. Notification is quick way to know whether I pushed my last commit.
  2. Horiz. orientation offers more horz. space for sidebars and main window.

The lack of notification in horizontal mode [is reported in other posts]:
