Description

### Expected behavior

When clicking on a string in the results of a notebook Jinja SQL query, the sidebar pops-up. It should display the string in the sidebar for readability. The sidebar should then be clickable and disappear after minimizing it.

### Actual behavior

The sidebar is empty and there is no button to hide it. So it blocks up the screen of the notebook, in all cells. Making it unreadable for the cells it is covering. Only re-loading VS Code will help. This is very annoying and makes working with the query results a russian roulette. Other than that notebooks are awesome!!

### Steps To Reproduce

1. Create new notebook (or open existing notebook).
2. Run a SQL-Jinja query that produces a long string (longer than fits in the cell results).
```
-- In Snowflake we can create a long string like this
select UUID_STRING()
```
4. Click on the string (for copying).
5. The sidebar opens to the right, empty. And covers the screen, and cannot be hidden/minimized.
