Description
Description of the Issue
When I open a second (third, fourth) instance of Notepad++ (for example, by click on the "Open in New Instance" tab menu item), and open a Project panel in that new instance then this panel is almost unnoticeable because it is only a few pixels wide.
Steps to Reproduce the Issue
- Open any document. (Optionally, click on "View" -> "Project panels" -> "Project Panel 1".)
- Click on the "Open in New Instance" tab menu item.
- In the new instance click on "View" -> "Project panels" -> "Project Panel 1".
- Try to find the Project panel.
Expected Behavior
The Project panel in the second instance should have the same width as in the first one.
Actual Behavior
The Project panel in the second instance is only a few pixels wide as screenshots below demonstrate:
The first instance:

The second instance before the Project panel opening:

The second instance with the Project panel opened:

Note a thin gap between a left window border and a left tab border on the last screenshot: this is not the gap, but the Project panel! And it can be expanded by mouse to a normal width!
