Rectangle not respecting dock size

[ryangrush]

I know this issue has been reported before, ex: #467, but I wanted to share the context of what I'm seeing.

The key thing for me is this only became an issue when I switched to Mac OS Tahoe. As others have said it seems to only be an issue when I plug or unplug my MBP into my external display (via a KVM switch most of the time). I also can't fix it by just clicking "Maximize", for example, multiple times. I have to kill the Rectangle process and open the app again.

macOS version: Tahoe 26.1
Rectangle version: v0.92 (98)
Logs if applicable (In Rectangle menu, hold option, "View Logging..."):

Thanks for reporting. As you probably noticed from previous issues, Rectangle is passively asking for the screen dimensions, which makes it hard to tell why restarting Rectangle would fix it. This would suggest that there's some form of caching of screen dimensions macOS side that gets refreshed when an app with accessibility permissions is launched, and perhaps the only way to work around it would be to have Rectangle automatically restart itself when displays are changed.

If you don't mind, when this breaks, can you send what the logs show when you execute a command, and when you restart it, a log of the correct behavior? I'd like to make sure I understand what Rectangle sees when it's broken.

@rxhanson here we go. Again I basically just used my KVM switch to switch from one laptop to the other and back again.
