I don't see a problem.  It could be a video driver bug.  Could you try it on another machine?

A better description might help.

Please post a screen shot of the view.

Is it the same on another machine?

I still don't see the problem.  And your screenshot isn't clear enough to show it.

the screenshot shows only where the problem happened and how to reproduce it....it doesn't show the problem actually.
I try to make a video later for a better view... but the problem exists, if it wont iI will not talking about it.
Yes, I can confirm that this is not an isolated case. I do see the same thing for a while now (can't remember if it already happened on MC27). Never bothered me enough to post it, but yes, it's there.

Thanks for all the details.  I'm working on a fix today.

Yep, this is an issue that's been around for years now that I've noticed daily (and pretty sure I've reported it at least once), but learned to ignore it. Glad to see it's finally being fixed and thank you Eternal Themer for being persistent. Wish I had more time to create videos and exact steps to reproduce issues like this, as I know of a few more skin/window drawing-related issues. :D

the window drawing issues if more of windows os bug and it's still unfixed well I don't expect  MS to do something anytime soon... but at least it's reported by many users, so they know it.

It depends, MC uses its own system for window drawing, and sometimes issues can arise from that. Like the infamous white box in the top left corner when starting MC or minimizing/restoring MC from the taskbar that momentarily appears before the window/skin draws that's been reported several times over the years. It's easier to see it with a high refresh rate monitor versus a 60Hz monitor but this one is pretty easy to ignore.

I'll give you another example, which is a skinning-related issue, is that sometimes MC thinks a maximized window for some reason isn't maximized and uses the wrong image (maximize button image instead of the restore image it should use when maximized). What I mean by that is at random, especially when using other full screen apps like games, MC will appear to be maximized (and it is) but it'll appear to be using the button set in main.xml for maximize instead of the restore button which it should be using.

I'll throw one more skinning-related issue at you, my Modern Cards: Acrylic White Edition skin doesn't work with glass effects anymore (I'm using Windows 11, will have to test it in a Windows 10 VM to see if it's just Windows 11). I did some limited investigation and found that any white (#FFFFFF) semi-transparent image no longer shows the transparency when glass is enabled in the skin, instead showing opaque. Other colors including grey and dark work, but not white.
