can we stop with the areas that change your map size?

Sometimes I open up the in game map to see more of where things are. You know, the purpose of a map.

You can customize the size of the map window. Areas that are bigger you can scroll to move your view, most ones that are smaller simply fit inside the window and don't change it's dimensions... but then, there are some that DO change your window dimensions to match the tiny map, and you can't change them back until you're in a different area.

I know I know, everyone's talking about the upcoming patch and the mechanical changes within, but THIS issue has been annoying me for years and not only is it still a huge annoyance in the old quests/areas it applies to, but now I see the newest expansion has (at least one so far) area that does this too.

I've learned to never open the in game map on an airship, in the outside area of Sunrise (here it actually shrinks your window to be smaller than the actual area, and you can watch your blue location marker dots go off screen), and now I see the outside area of Make Believe does this too. (there may be other areas that mess with your map window dimensions, but these are the ones I know from the top of my head).

Please can this be fixed at some point?

Yes, this is very annoying. I hate going into Make Believe.

I agree. This is a most annoying little bug for the map. I, too, want to see it fixed.

Piggyback another window-size/placement GUI annoyance that's similar...

I really wish the Teleport multiselect window was anchored higher up. I hate having to grab it and drag it up to get to Gatekeepers because the default position on my resolution puts the bottom end below the screen. Either anchor it center-to-center in the main game window, or have it remember its position if you move it.

I would love a "reset map size" button.

Or even the ability to lock the width and height with each other so the map is always perfectly square when I'm resizing it.

Oh my god! Needle in a Fey Stack (the treasure trove) from Feywild is another one!

First time in, mini map not helping, so I open the map to get my bearings, and my map changes to a tall rectangle that doesn't show the whole area, my dot is off the map, and I can't even scroll it to see where I am.

Argh!
