how to hide the chat panel in teams?

I like to keep my teams small so previously, with 80% zoom and the teams window as small as possible, I realized that the chat panel would auto hide and it would show only when I hover my mouse over Chat.

However, recently chat panel would stay open so it is taking up quite a space in my small teams window. Does anyone know how to make this chat panel auto hide itself?

Only way to make it hide is if I make the zoom 115% which is ridiculously large for me...

    Mine is definitely still not fixed, even after clearing the app. It was ok yesterday and then today when I logged in it went back to the other way.

    Well, I don't know if Microsoft changed it again. It seems like now the chat auto hides itself with teams window as small as possible with 80% zoom.

    I hope this does not change again! Thank you for changing it again :)
