It seems to be similar, however I don't have this issue with 6.4 as described in another report and on Windows 7 this issue is sligtly different, because it affects only Gallery tab. Other tabs in Windows can be reduced to reasonable size.

This regression is just introduced in 6.4.7.1.
Only Styles tab can be reduced to reasonable size. Design tab is more than 1/3 of screen.
Somebody really have to take care for quality control of newly introduced Visual interface code.
I added screeshot to demonstrate the problem. Sidebar cannot be reduced.

Correction - Gallery tab also can be reduced.
