Description
In the Claude Code desktop app's file preview panel (the side panel that shows a selected file's contents, e.g. a .txt report), there used to be a copy-to-clipboard icon in the panel header. It no longer appears.

Environment

  • Claude Code version: 2.1.250
  • Platform: Windows 11 Pro (win32)
  • Client: Desktop app (Code tab)

Expected behavior
A copy icon in the file preview panel header to copy the file's contents to clipboard.

Actual behavior
The icon is missing; only search/more-options/expand/close icons remain in the panel header.

Additional context
Not sure exactly when this was removed — noticed it recently while viewing a .txt report file in the panel.
