Sorry if this issue has already been posted. I couldn't find anything related.

Environment

Windows build number: Microsoft Windows Version 10.0.18362.535
Windows Terminal version: 0.7.3451.0

Steps to reproduce

  • open terminal
  • maximize window (alt+space+x)
  • toggle fullscreen (alt+enter)

Expected behavior

  • taskbar hidden
  • window correctly displaying terminal's content

normal_screen

Actual behavior

  • taskbar showing
  • distorted content displayed on terminal

incorrect_screen

This only happens when toggling fullscreen from a maximized terminal window
