When I use the integrated build I also maximise the window. Imho it's the 
only way to use this version. Just double click on the title bar.

If you don't want to use it, you can drag down the divider just between the 
move details and the text annotation (as you noted below). I also usually 
switch off the message window below.

You can just switch the message window off. One line messages still show 
without any extra popup in the status bar.
