When Windows 10 is set to automatically hide the taskbar, the Musicbee program windows is not properly sized after starting it up. It is cropped about 2 mm on all sides (you could say it is zoomed in). After toggling the fullscreen button the crop is gone as shown in these screenshots:

I wonder if it has something to do with where some button "anchors" are placed? It seems to crop until the closing "X" button is perfectly hitting the corner of my screen, so it loses the 2mm breathing room around it.
It's mainly annoying because it interferes with the mouse detection of Windows 10 to show the taskbar again. In the "zoomed in" startup mode of the program window the taskbar does not appear when I hit the bottom of my screen with the mouse cursor. After toggling to get rid of the zoom, the taskbar detection works again.

So when the taskbar is not automatically hidden, MusicBee's window size remains consistent (properly sized as expected)?
How do other programs on your system behave under the same taskbar settings described in your post? Do they maintain their window size?

Yes, I just verified it again by fixing the taskbar in place, then Musicbee opens with the correct sizing.

All the other programs function perfectly fine it seems, Musicbee is the only faulty one i noticed until now. I just verified with chrome, telegram, powerpoint, and steam and they all have the correct sizing.

Does this happen with -all- skins, or just certain ones? Have you tried the default skin?
If it happens with specific skins, I suggest you post the issue on the thread for that skin.

Aha good suggestion to investigate. The result I found makes the bug even more subtle though. Because remember that the bug is twp-part: incorrect sizing and the taskbar not appearing any more when your cursor touches the bottom of the screen.
1. The wrong sizing happens on all skins I think, I tried the default one, a neutral one, a dark one and a blue one. This is with the "apply on window borders" turned on.
2. If turn the "apply on window borders" off, then the sizing is correct at startup! For all 4 skins as well. However, the dark one especially looks like crap then because the window border is bright white then.
3. Also, if it is turned off then the taskbar does never appear any more! In all 4 skins the program started up with the correct sizing but the taskbar did not appear when I put my cursor against the bottom of the screen. Even worse: toggling the fullscreen button does not fix it any more.
So, experiment conclusion:
1. If "apply on window borders" is turned on, startup size is incorrect and taskbar does not appear any more but this can be fixed by toggeling the fullscreen button.
2. If it is turned off, startup size is correct but taskbar does not appear any more and toggling the fullscreen butten does not fix it any more.
Since I would like to get to other programs without having to alt+tab out of Musicbee every time, having the skin not applied to the window border is even worse.

If you untick "skin window borders" it will work as you expect.
