What's Wrong?

What's Wrong?

In the Claude Code Mac desktop app, the input field where you type prompts has a scrolling bug. When you type a multi-line message and press Shift+Enter to add a new line, the input field auto-scrolls to the top of your message instead of staying at the bottom where you're actively typing. Every subsequent Shift+Enter requires manually scrolling back down to see your cursor. This makes writing longer prompts extremely frustrating.

What Should Happen?

Expected Behavior

The input field should keep the cursor visible at the bottom of the text area after pressing Shift+Enter, similar to standard text editor behaviour.
