What happens when switching back and forth between the various tabs just 
after launch?  See if the full contents of "Command Window" comes back 
with a redraw.  Also, you could close the File Browser, Workspace and 
Command History windows, exit and relaunch to see if the missing section 
is part of the Command Window or the main window (i.e., does the width 
of the visible portion change with window size changes?).
