The Compare by Content window size is changed to only the titlebar after restoring the window when it has been hidden using the Show Desktop button in the taskbar.
Steps to repoduce.
1. Under Windows 7 x64 open to different files in the Compare by Content tool.
2. Click (not just hover) the Show Desktop button in the far right side of the taskbar (horisontal taskbar).
3. Click the Compare by Content button in the taskbar, or use Alt+Tab to reopen the Compare by Content window.
4. The Compare by Content window is now fully reduced vertically and is only 650 pixels wide. The upper left corner is in it's previous position.
This does not happen if I only hover the Show Desktop button, and not if I just reclick the Show Desktop button to restore the windows.
It happens with Classic, Aero and Luna desktop theme, and with a clean wincmd.ini file.

Confirmed, thanks! It's actually a Lazarus bug when one of the Constraints values is set. I will fix it.

Hello, Christian.
petermad's report reproduced using Total Commander 8.0ß6 64-bit on Server 2008 R2.
Restoring the "compare by content" window to the previous size and position by clicking the "compare by content" taskbar icon works correctly when using
Total Commander 8.0ß7 64-bit on Server 2008 R2.
So the underlying problem seems to have been resolved.
Cheers,
Karl
