Ubuntu 21.04: ubuntu dock causes windows in Activities view get cutt off at the bottom

[Anand]

On ubuntu 21.04 and on 20.10. When I open the activities view with a few windows open the bottom edge of the windows (with the window names) get cut off, the bottom of the workspaces bar on the right side also gets cut off.

When the workspaces bar is fully extended, the windows can be seen fully. So when I hover over the workspaces bar, or there are multiple workspaces with windows in them, or with an extension to always keep the workspaces open, this issue doesn't impact anything. However, the issue still exists because you can see the bottom of the workspaces bar being cut off.

When I connect a second monitor, and arrange the monitors one above the other (with the top one as the permanent), I can see the cut off UI elements on the bottom monitor.

With the ubuntu dock extension disabled, none of these issues are present.

Here are a few screenshots that show the bug in action: https://ibb.co/album/4whv2c

I could NOT spot this issue on a clean install of ubuntu 20.04. But I could see it on clean installs of both on 20.10 and on 21.04. This exists both on Wayland and Xorg.

This might be related to this prior issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock/+bug/1834967 . Maybe this issue was fixed in 20.04 but not on the later versions.
