Thanks @ManiaciaChao - can you try the workaround suggested by @dokastho?

Also can you reproduce this in vscode.dev?

Unfortunately, that workaround doesn’t work on my machine.

However, I found it an upstream issue with vscode or monaco-editor, which can be reproduced both on monaco-editor or vscode.dev.

Just close this issue for now 😃 I will open an issue at vscode’s repo and try to make a PR in the next following days.

I had this issue in the same environment, removing the menu bar fixed it for me. View > Appearance > Show Menu Bar. I also have this bookmark added to my home screen
