Preserve viewport/context when exiting transcript overlay #14098

Description

@dikelps

What variant of Codex are you using?

CLI

What feature would you like to see?

Exiting transcript mode currently leaves me disoriented because the main TUI appears reset/cleared and the composer is placed at the top, so I lose visual continuity with the conversation I was just reviewing.

Request:

  • restore the prior viewport/scroll position when closing transcript mode
  • keep the composer in its normal anchored position

This is particularly important for long sessions and multi-agent workflows, where user checks different window and need the context for the conversation.
