Unable to resize peek window

[jakewisse]

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

When searching for references using the editor.action.goToReferences command, when the peek window opens, I’m not able to resize its height using the mouse. When hovering over its top/bottom boundaries, no resize cursor appears.

Steps to Reproduce

There are a few ways, but,

• Open a file in a project where a language server understands symbol information (in my case a PHP file with Intelephense)
• Move the cursor over a symbol, e.g. a class name
• Command palette > “Go To References” to open references in the project in the peek window.
• Position the mouse over the top or bottom edges of the pane => No up-down-arrow resize cursor appears, unable to otherwise change its height.

Operating System

MacOS

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, thanks for the report. This is expected behavior right now.

As I mentioned in a similar report, the ability to resize peek windows by dragging was added in a VS Code version that is newer than the one Cursor is currently based on (1.99.3).

Cursor updates its VS Code base periodically, so this feature will be included automatically in one of the upcoming releases.

This is not true. The peek window has been resizable since the very first releases of VSCode, and 1.99.3 was released in March of 2025. In fact, it was resizable in Cursor until I updated this morning.
