Windows build number: 10.0.18363.815
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 0.11.1191.0

Any other software?

Steps to reproduce

  • Start Windows Terminal.
  • Reduce the length and width until it is no longer possible.
  • Now move the mouse pointer to the title bar.
  • Now move the mouse pointer to the left until the mouse pointer has a small distance to Windows Terminal.

Expected behavior

Windows Terminal should not show an invisible minimize button

Actual behavior

Windows Terminal displays an invisible button for minimizing.

Could you maybe post a screenshot of this when it's reproing? Maybe something got lost in translation, but I can't get this to repro locally:

@zadjii-msft You have forgotten to reduce the length and width, reduce the length and width until this is no longer possible and the distance between the mouse pointer and the Windows terminal is too great.

Ah okay, this is actually fixed in #5599, which I guess wasn't in 0.11.1191. Once that PR rolls out, you won't actually be able to make the Terminal window smaller than that size in my screenshot, so this bug will be impossible to hit.
