What's Wrong?
Bug: white vertical stripe hides left edge of text when right-side panel is pinned (Claude Desktop, macOS)
When I pin the right-side panel (Progress / Working folders / Context) in Claude Desktop, a blank white vertical stripe appears between the left navigation sidebar and the chat area. It's empty — no content — and it overlaps the first several characters of every line of chat text, making the conversation hard to read.
Steps: open a conversation with a lot of text → click the pin icon in the top right to pin the right-side panel → the white stripe appears, clipping the left edge of each line.
Expected: pinning the panel should shrink the chat from the right, with no overlay or clipping on the left.
It goes away as soon as I unpin the panel. macOS, observed 17 April 2026. Screenshot attached.
