Description
I've encountered strange behavior while writing tiling window manager using Nano-X. When I resize windows, sometimes old border remains on the screen.
Before resize:
After:
Notably this happens only when I increase left window size, but not right.
Here is a simple program to reproduce: https://git.flygrounder.ru/flygrounder/microwindows-border-bug/src/branch/master/src/main.c
