Problem Description

I frequently use maximize the pane to switch between different ones for productivity. Since the begining of Spyder 3.3 it does not properly maximize a pane of my interest (command window, text editor and all others).

I updated to the recent version v 3.3.1 but still the problem exists.

I tested Spyder on two machines: Windows 10 and Windows 7. Thank you so much for your help.

What steps reproduce the problem?

Click the maximize pane from the main window or use a shortcut.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Please see the image below. The problem is that it has big white spaces.

I built Qt locally with this change and can confirm it fixes this issue for me. I have a few loose ends with Qt to tie up (looking at adding QtCharts and a Designer plugin bug) before I release it though.

Thank you guys for your prompt action. The problem is resolved by following the @jitseniesen suggestion, and the maximize pane works like a charm.

I have done: conda install qt=5.9.5:
