What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?

26.415.4716.0

What subscription do you have?

Personal OpenAI account for Codex desktop access

What platform is your computer?

Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.26100.0 x64

What issue are you seeing?

In the Windows Codex App, the provider chip in the top toolbar clips the bottom of the text.

From the UI, the problem is most visible on letters with descenders:

  • The bottom of the letter is clipped, as if 1 to 2 pixels below the baseline are missing
  • The glyph looks visually incomplete
  • Other text on the same row usually looks fine, so this seems specific to the provider chip's height, line-height, or overflow clipping

This is a visual rendering issue and does not appear to affect functionality, but it is visible during normal use.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

  1. Open the Codex App on Windows
  2. Select a provider whose name contains descender letters
  3. Look at the provider chip in the top toolbar
  4. Notice that letters with descenders are clipped at the bottom

I do not have a smaller repro than this at the moment. It seems likely to happen whenever the provider label contains letters like g, p, y, q, or j.

What is the expected behavior?

Text inside the provider chip should render fully, and letters with descenders such as g, p, y, q, and j should not be clipped.

Additional information

  • From the appearance, this looks like 1 to 2 pixels of bottom clipping caused by the provider chip container height, line-height, or overflow: hidden
  • I can attach a screenshot if needed; I submitted the issue with text first
