Try running LO in safe mode now that 7.4.2-1 is out and factory resetting the entire profile. This did NOT work for me on previous versions but does seem to work on this new version. On older versions it would relapse immediately on closing and reopening but 7.4.2-1 with a reset profile is behaving for me now.
You're right. Resetting the profile after the update solves the issue.
Thank you.
I've also discovered that if I grab an open window to drag to a different monitor, it'll turn back into a sliver as I drag it. BUT if I don't let go and throw it up against the top screen edge once I get to the other monitor, the sliver will open up to maximized because of my Workspace Behaviour setting for Screen Edges.
Another thing that is helping in the meantime are specific Window Rules for each of LO calc, writer and startcenter to force the Size & Position to Maximised horizontally and vertically. Before a recent update, those settings were not being obeyed, but the last couple of days it's been fine. I look forward to this being resolved.

Thanks for this! Another workaround I found is to right click on the application icon > More > Maximize.

The "user specified size" is a sane value, while yours is "1 by 48".

No can't resize as there's no handle to resize. If toggle minimize and maximize, I can tell something is happening
Make sure it's not maximized before trying to grab. I had the same issue and i could resize it. But i'm on xfce.
You could delete/rename the config to get default values.
Try a different theme engine:
$ env SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk3 libreoffice --writer
Or safe mode:
$ libreoffice --safe-mode
