AskUserQuestion: preview panel should be scrollable
Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Mar 15, 2026 by AlfaKeNTAvR Closed Mar 18, 2026
Problem
The preview field on AskUserQuestion options truncates content with a "N lines hidden" indicator when it exceeds the panel height. There's no way to configure the panel size or scroll to see the full content.
Screenshot

Example
When presenting commit split options, even a short preview like this gets truncated:
1. feat: Add terminal bell hooks for notifications
Files: settings.json (hooks section), hooks/stop.py
2. fix: Use current context tokens in statusline
Files: statusline.sh, settings.json (no overlap — hooks
section is additive)
Suggested fix
Make the preview panel scrollable so users can see the full content, rather than hard-truncating it.
