"With a dragged window" - default as far as I see is on.
I confirm that either with those 4 defaults, or with "with a dragged
window" off (as you suggested that would fix it), I still have it bugged.
If you still don't get a dragged window filling half of the screen,
then I can't reproduce your issue and don't have a solution.
Is there any other setting that might be affecting?
Hello Alex,
I tried to find out where the magic happens,
and wanted to write it to you.
But I found some strange wiring about the "With a dragged window"
configuration option.
Somehow it is responsible in the configuration file
for "/general/snap_to_windows" and "/general/tile_on_move".
Unfortunately the latter setting can just be changed once,
and that is switching off.
The patch at the bottom would set tile_on_move to true,
if the "With a dragged window" gets switched off.
Kind regards,
Bernhard
