I updated cursor to 0.48 and it seems the vertical sidebar configuration has been removed. Is there a reason we cannot control the sidebar location anymore? I think the vertical sidebar is much more comfortable then the horizontal and it would be great to have this option back. Thanks

Hey, please check this thread: [image] 0.48 removed workbench.activityBar.orientation Feedback why removed workbench.activityBar.orientation ? I don’t think this will affect the AI functionality，I don’t understand
