Fixes

• Translate button, Copy and Thumbs up button: Previously, overlapping text disrupted readability. Now, the background is filled with the Surface color across the entire width of the "Original Text" and “Translation” box to prevent text cutoff.

• WebSocket connection: After reconnecting to the network, a new WebSocket connection is established instead of attempting to reuse the old one, as it was closed when the network disconnected.

• Streaming: The Stop button will now disappear once streaming is complete.

  • When the Stop button is visible and a user opens a new space, it will no longer remain visible.
