Description
Folding the basis Message Window or To-Do List window or any other windows on the bottom doesn't work in D4Win32, but it works in RAD Studio. There is also no pin to can switch the folding mode. The windows have been nested at test time.
Steps to Reproduce:
Show some of the debug windows and nest them. Drag and snap the nested block to the bottom area. Look for the folding pin or any settings to can fold the window block.
Workarounds
Drag the window or window block to the very bottom of the IDE screen and not only to the bottom of the editor window.

Confirmed also here. But it seems that it has to do rather with
different configurations of (docked) layouts. I'll attach my .dst which
surfaces the problem. Perhaps someone can confirm?

I have the same configuration in the .DST file. As I have seen the docksite for the bottom part looks same as the other two ones for left and right. I still se the difference in the Delphi version: RAD vs. Win32.

Would you please add some screen dumps showing when it works and when it doesn't work ?

I have got it! - One needs to drag the window or window block to the very-very bottom of the IDE-screen otherwise it docks to the editor window where it cannot be folded. If added to the very bottom of the IDE it folds as used.
