VMWare Workstation Toolbar Conflicts with Teamviewer's Toolbar

Hi folks,

Not sure if anyone had encountered this yet. This has been bugging me. I found out that the Toolbar in VMWare Workstation actually conflicts with the toolbar for Teamviewer

So I have both VMWare Workstation (v15.5.1) and Teamviewer (v15.3) installed. For VMWare Workstation, these are the toolbar settings I have:

I put the toolbar in VMWare Workstation to auto-hide:

but the edge of the toolbar will still show (based on the setting above) when I run a VM in full screen.

Then I run Teamviewer and connected to another computer. On this Teamviewer window, I "minimized" the toolbar which looks like this:

Now when I switch to the VMWare Workstation and when my mouse point to the edge of the toolbar, the toolbar does not drop down like it should.

However, when I  "maximize" the toolbar in Teamviewer window like this:

the toolbar in VMWare Workstation returns to its normal behavior by dropping down when the mouse pointer points to the edge.

So this proves that there the toolbar in both VMWare Workstation and Teamviewer are conflicting. Anyone able to advise on this bug please?

Thanks!
