Windows Terminal version

1.13.11432.0

Windows build number

10.0.22622.290

Other Software

No response

Steps to reproduce

  • Start Windows Terminal (opens a tab)
  • Move the Windows Terminal window as far as possible to the right side and outside of the desktop, by dragging the window title bar.
  • Open a new tab by clicking the [+]

Alternative:

  • Right click the Windows Terminal title bar and select Move
  • Move the window as far as possible to the right side and outside of the desktop

Now there is no way anymore to grab the window, because the title bar is completely covered by 'tabs'.

Expected Behavior

It should always be possible to move the Windows terminal window.

Actual Behavior

There is no way to grab or move the Windows Terminal window when only the tabs are visible.
