Writer display problem in LO 6.4.6.2 on Linux Mint 20/Cinnamon V4.6.7

This problem happens in Writer, but not in Calc, so it is limited to the
module.

I must have done something, for this suddenly started happening.

I can display a page either full screen, or minimize it completely, so it
disappears off the page entirely. In other words, Minimize is now not a
partial screen, but it is in effect parking it off screen, where I can
maximize it again from the Writer icon on the task bar.

Ergo what is lost is the ability to reduce the window to a partial screen -
if I try, it becomes a postage stamp and my only option is to maximize it
to full screen again.

Minimize it to the postage stamp size then grab a corner and drag it up in size. Might have to grab a 'corner' multiple times.

This happens to me every so often and I can't figure out what causes it.

You do not say what OS-DE combination you are using. This happened to
me the other day, but Enlightenment provides a right-click menu from
the icon on the ask bar to access resizing with the keyboard. I suspect
other Linux (at least) DEs have something similar. A lifesaver when the
window drops down to less than postage stamp size!
