This actually is not a duplicate bug because I have successfully mapped ctrl-alt-v to maximize the active window.
This bug concerns the gsettings configuration of the middle mouse button. Specifically, that the selected option behaves as another. FYI, this arose because the interface no longer maximizes vertically when the top edge of a window is dragged to the top of the screen. ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 1698083 Maximize vertically/horizontally doesn't work (in some apps) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1969782 Title: action-middle-click-titlebar 'toggle-maximize-vertically' instead does 'toggle-maximize' Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Simply, configuring the middle mouse button in dconf-editor to maximize a window vertically when its title bar is middle-clicked, causes the window instead to maximize fully. In dconf-editor, the setting is /org/gnome/desktop/wm/preferences/action-middle-click-titlebar. The misbehaving setting is 'toggle-maximize-vertically'. The 'toggle-maximize' setting works correctly. Ubuntu 20.04.4 gnome-shell 3.36.9-0ubuntu0.20.04.2 Expected behavior: Configuring the middle mouse button to maximize vertically would cause the window to maximize vertically. Behavior: Configuring the middle mouse button to maximize vertically instead causes the window to maximize fully, i.e., both vertically and horizontally.
