Problem description

I double-clicked on a Part Fusion in the Tree view, and the Task view exploded in size.

In the same session I was using sketcher, and the task view didn't behave oddly there. A list of things I've done in the past day that could maybe have caused it:

~~1. I've changed from FreeCAD_weekly-builds-37100-conda-Linux-x86_64-py311.AppImage to FreeCAD_weekly-builds-37213-conda-Linux-x86_64-py311.AppImage~~ 2. I've made some tweaks to system fonts via fontconfig to diagnose other issues ~~3. I've moved Tree view and Selection view from outside the main window to inside, then back again a few times to diagnose yet another reported issue~~

Subproject(s) affected?

Other (specify in description)

Anything else?

I've seen this happen in other Qt apps. KDE has one seldom used dialog that has MAX_INT horizontal dimension. I can "fix" it with a window manager rule. The screenshot was taken after moving Tasks out of the window (it was unbounded when docked as well). This is a 4 monitor setup, one on top of 3.

Caused by using the Terminus font. There is a longstanding Qt bug about this. https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-22599

I'm leaving this open because even though Qt is bugging out, the problem only manifests when no maximum size is defined for windows and/or the widgets contained within.
