System details:

Positron and OS details:

Positron Version: 2024.09.0 (Universal) build 45 Code - OSS Version: 1.92.0 Commit: b0ec249b20455499f9e79ffe0bec35a5ff602ea4 Date: 2024-09-16T02:45:13.900Z Electron: 30.1.2 Chromium: 124.0.6367.243 Node.js: 20.14.0 V8: 12.4.254.20-electron.0 OS: Darwin arm64 23.5.0

Interpreter details:

R 4.3.1 - probably doesn't matter

Describe the issue:

The variables pane vertical splitter that separates the variables name from its display values is hard to drag. When you click to drag it, you can only drag it a few pixels. See screencast below:

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/948c798a-6d37-4225-94eb-7d4baab43a71

Steps to reproduce the issue:

Create a variable like: 

very_long_name <- list(
  a_very_very_very_long_name = list(1,2,3)
)

Expected or desired behavior:

Should be easy to drag that splitter so you can quickly see the full name.

Were there any error messages in the UI, Output panel, or Developer Tools console?

N/A

I recently posted a discussion here at #4805 regarding this behavior in Positron. and i seemed to have missed that there is an open issue regarding this behavior! I apologize for that! I also wanted to add that once you're able to pull the splitter, the variable panel vertical splitter stops at about here (see below) and at that point you are not able to pull or drag past that stopping point

where as in R studio, it stops at about here:
