Hello,

Under Debian bookworm, meld opens with it's height equal to the tallest 
screen.

My screen setup, from left to right, is a vertical screen (rotated 
right), a horizontal one, and a vertical one (rotated right).

The first issue is that every time I open meld, it will open on the 
middle screen, with it's width a bit smaller than the middle screen, but 
with the window's height equal to the height of the vertical screens.

I click to make the window full screen on the middle screen, but every 
time I double click to open a file by file comparison, it reverts back 
to the height of one of the middle screens.

This regression makes using meld on bookworm almost unsable. It's become 
easier to use meld in F11 type fullscreen which doesn't present the 
regression.

I can screen record the issue if you wish.

Thanks
Julien
