Moving maximized Electron apps via shortcut causes window's title bar to glitch out

I am using Windows 10 RS4 x64 with the DisplayFusion 9.2 Beta 3. Whenever I move a maximized Electron-based desktop application like Discord or WhatsApp via the "Move to next monitor" shortcut, the title bar glitches out. It seems like the app window gets an additional native Windows title bar almost, but it is distorted and too small. Switching the application back to the monitor it originated on, restores the window correctly.

I have attached screenshots to show you what exactly I mean.

It looks like this is an Electron bug in Windows 10. I can reproduce it even without DisplayFusion running, just by maximizing an Electron window, restoring it, then maximizing it again.

The reason it shows up with the Move to Next Monitor function is because when moving to the next monitor, DisplayFusion restores the window, moves it, then re-maximizes it.

Unfortunately it's not something we can fix from our end, but hopefully the bug in Electron will be fixed up soon
