Summary

In the Codex Desktop app, the Token Limits section is visually clipped on the right side, so parts of the time/usage text are cut off and unreadable.

Environment

  • App: Codex Desktop
  • App version: 26.429.61741 (build 2429)
  • OS: macOS 26.4.1 (build 25E253)
  • CPU architecture: arm64 (Apple Silicon, Apple M4)
  • Display setup:
  • U34E2M — 2560 × 1080 @ 60 Hz (main display)
  • DELL P2416D — 2560 × 1440 @ 60 Hz
  • Display scaling / zoom: UI appears at native “Looks like” resolution (no additional scaling reported)
  • Window size/state: normal windowed usage (not fullscreen)

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open Codex Desktop.
  2. Open the panel/menu where Token Limits are shown.
  3. Look at the rows showing remaining time and percentage values.

Expected Behavior

All Token Limits values (time and percentages) should be fully visible.

Actual Behavior

The right side of the values is clipped/truncated, making parts of the text unreadable.

Frequency

Always

Additional Context

  • UI language is German in this setup.
  • Example visible clipping in the screenshot: the right-side time values are cut off.

Still reproducible in the current Codex App:

  • Codex App: 26.707.72221 (build 5307)
  • Platform: macOS 26.5.2 (25F84), arm64
  • UI language: German
  • Captured app/window area: 1142 × 838 px

The weekly-usage row now shows three clipping problems at the same time:

  1. The left label is rendered as Wöchentliches Nutzun….
  2. The reset hint is rendered as Wird 22. Juli zurückges….
  3. The right-side value is clipped after 59 % übri…, so the user has to infer that it means 59 % übrig.

Expected: the remaining percentage and reset date should stay fully readable for localized strings. The row should not rely on English text widths; a responsive column layout, a reserved minimum width for the percentage, or wrapping the reset hint would avoid clipping.

This is low severity / nice-to-have, but confirms that the issue is still present in a July 2026 build. Related localization reports: #20190 and #32320.
