Strange behavior when restoring Delphi v10.3.3 IDE window from MINIMIZED window state

[PeterPanettone 157]

This is how my Delphi v10.3.3 IDE window normally looks:

 

 

But MANY TIMES, when I restore the IDE window from MINIMIZED window state (by clicking on the Delphi icon on the Windows Taskbar) there is a substantial vertical GAP between the MainMenu/Toolbar area and the main panels area:

 

 

I then double-click twice on the IDE window title-bar to restore the usual IDE layout.

 

For testing, I have disabled all my IDE plugins to exclude any possible influence from such a plugin.

 

Has anybody ever experienced this annoying effect?

What is your screen resolution?

Mine is currently 1920x1074, but changing it does not make any difference for me; the behaviour is still the same.

Do you also have an unusual WAITING TIME of about 2 - 3 seconds when restoring the IDE window from minimized state?

Nothing so unusual: it takes less than a second.

Yes, I noticed this problem too. Usually just a clic on the toolbar restore the vertical space.

And NO, I don't have lag-time restoring the window from minimized.

 

More, I have a problem of messed up toolbars when going from desinger to code view, but not always.

 

 

My resolution is 2560x1440.

Seems the toolbars are a mess.

I have just tested it now on my fresh installed Delphi Ide inside a VM (Windows 10) on my new MacBook Pro. No gap this time, but a waiting time of about 1 second when restoring from minimized state. It seems that migrating to Windows 10 (from Windows 7) healed several things.
