What's Wrong?

In the fullscreen terminal layout, hovering over the close mark (×) in a docked pane's top-right corner moves the mark out of place. It happens with the built-in /diff pane and with a mod's pane opened through $.ui.open.

What Should Happen?

The × should stay where it is on hover and only change its colour or highlight, so it can be clicked reliably.

Error Messages/Logs

None. It's a visual problem.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Run Claude Code in Ghostty inside tmux (TERM=tmux-256color, 24-bit colour passed through), fullscreen layout.
  2. Make the terminal wide enough for panes to dock beside the conversation.
  3. Run /diff, or open any mod pane.
  4. Move the mouse over the × in the pane's top-right corner.
  5. The × moves when the pointer reaches it.
