Summary

In the Claude Code desktop app on Windows, the Markdown file preview does not have a refresh or reload button. When the file is updated externally, there is no way to manually trigger a preview update.

Environment

  • OS: Windows 11 Pro
  • App: Claude Code Desktop App

Expected behavior

A refresh/reload button should be available in the Markdown preview, or the preview should auto-update when the file changes.

Actual behavior

No refresh button is present in the Markdown preview. Users cannot update the preview after file changes without closing and reopening the preview.
