However, every time Filezilla is closed and restarted, I find that the local and remote directory tree containers have almost closed (collapsed, contracted..), just about the root folder is visible. This has been the case for a couple of versions now, in the past the directory tree and files containers stayed exactly where I dragged them to, even if set different for each tab, then each tab got it's own height back.
It's a minor thing but a major nuisance

FYI, I tried different screen layouts, and when I put the directory trees left of the files, they collapse to the left, same as horizontally they collapse to the top..
