ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Does this only affect KDE apps, or all windows? I've seen ca panel-height sized windows before, but only with some KDE apps on new output configurations

Comment 2 Paddy 2022-07-15 00:39:04 UTC

   All windows resize. Usually I'm running brave, terminal, Thunderbird
   and all shrink to just a bar
