When saving a file, the upper part of the file manager is cut out.i3wm
Every time I want to save a file, the upper and bottom part of file manager just gets cut off. It looks like this . I'm using i3-gaps. I have already tried to change in mimeinfo.cache file manager to thunar and it worked for for everything BUT the file saving screen. Please help

Save a file from where?
Applications don't use thunar, they use their native file chooser window.

Presented image is when i want to save a file in vscode. The same thing happens when I save file(f.ex. image) from browser(brave).

vscode and brave are both gtk3 applications. You need to configure i3 to always open the gtk3 file-chooser at a fixed size that fits your monitor.

If you resize that file dialog manually, it should remember its size for the next time it opens.
