@surak Is this the dropdown that you are referencing?

[surak]

Exactly. It went missing in the latest experimental update. Reverting to the production release brought it back.

[surak]

Is it known? Is it desired to remove the list? Do I close this, what do I do? :-)

@surak I think what happened is that it's just disappearing when the sidebar is too narrow—we recently did a lot of work to make the UI more responsive. Let me know if this is the case. We'd then probably want to change which buttons disappear first for users with extremely narrow sidebars

[surak]

Damn, you are right! It disappears when using the laptop screen, which is smaller and makes continue smaller.

Yes, it's exactly that and it's a very strange design decision. I would not know where to look for it, it's unexpected and inconsistent. But now I know. Thanks!

@surak thanks for the feedback here! Updated so that the model selector is always visible: https://github.com/continuedev/continue/pull/2431

Great, thanks!
