Adjust Window Size/Width
Often when I'm working in MuseScore, I'm referencing another document; usually snapping the two side by side. This worked well with MuseScore 3, but MuseScore 4 seems to hog 3/4 of the screen or more and refuses to be made any narrower. Is there really no way to adjust the size of the window more?

I hope the adjustment window size wasn't used as a 90's style... :)

Ah, man. I hate that guy.
But seriously, why is the window for Musescore 4 so limited for horizontal scaling?

I have the exact same problem, used to be able to nicely split the screen in two halves, reference image on the left, Musescore window on the right. Now Musescore 4 stubbornly refuses to use less than about two thirds of the total screen width, even if none of the tools menus are opened or docked and regardless of the zooming of the page view.
This is really bugging me too. Seems like musescore still has quite a few issues to work out. Would also love if I was able to have to scores (tabs) in the same window again.

Very much agree, on both the window scaling and tabs.
I have the same issue, I want to split my screen with musescore on one side and a .pdf file on the other side. Right now that seems impossible.
Yep, same here, hope this gets fixed. I too often view a pdf next to the Musescore window. I've played around with Musescore 4, but it's back to version 3 for now. Too many issues, one of which is this.
This is still an issue in April 2023.
Still open:

It's an running issue for me. I regularly want two MS windows on the screen without overlap. It really ought to be possible to limit the width to 960 pixels.
