Due to upgrading to a Mac Studio I was forced to install MacOS Monterey, coming from years of working on MacOS Mojave.

Besides some annoying sleep/wake related bugs (will Apple ever get this right?) there is this annoying new "feature". Basically, in an app like BBedit with multiple documents open and you select a document hidden to the background to become visible in the app again, Monterey resizes and repositions it to the left bottom side of the screen, no matter what you window settings you originally had for that file.

It's a mystery to me, how an OS UI designer could implement such a dumb and obnoxious feature, completely disregarding the user's preferences.

So with which MacOS version was this introduced, and how can you disable that hide/show open file "effect?"
