Projects tree in the Project Browser (but also Files/Services), seem to grow in size by introducing more white space in between some of the branches. It seems to happen only on branches that are already showing (needs to be in an expanded leaf). This problem gets aggravated by the fact that the scrollbar is not aware of this growth, and causes some project artifacts to go out of reach. This is a persistent problem I found a while back even in previous releases - so I am not able to state exactly where it started. The Problem seems to be triggered by keeping the IDE open for a prolonged amount of time, which I often do.
I am pretty sure this does not belong under versioncontrol. reporter: please make a screenshot of the issue.
