In focus mode at viewport widths ≥ 1200px, #editor-column padding grows to 20% and is marked -webkit-app-region: drag. macOS hit-tests drag regions above the web layer, so this padding band swallows mouse events for the preferences sidebar rendered beneath it — the menu items are plain divs, not button/input elements exempted globally in renderer.css.
Fixed by marking #editor-column as no-drag in focus mode. Window dragging is unaffected since the #editor-column:before pseudo-element already provides a dedicated drag area.
Tested with focus mode on/off across viewport widths (~900, ~1100, ~1300, ~1600px), confirming preferences sidebar works in all cases and window dragging still works via the top strip.
Fixes standardnotes/forum#4140
