Title:
a maximized window won't be tiled
Status in Gnome Shell Extension Tiling Assistant:
Unknown
Status in gnome-shell-extension-tiling-assistant package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in gnome-shell-extension-tiling-assistant source package in Plucky:
In Progress
Bug description:
[ Impact ]
A maximized window cannot be unmaximized and tiled in one step.
Dragging with the mouse a maximized window will unmaximize it, but
moving it to a screen edge does not offer the option to tile it. To be
tiled, the window must first be unmaximized, then selected again to be
tiled.
[ Test Plan ]
1. Log into Ubuntu Desktop
2. Ensure "Enhanced Tiling" is enabled in Settings > Ubuntu Desktop
3. Maximize a window
4. Without ever releasing the mouse button, drag the window from its titlebar
and move it to a screen edge
5. Verify that a rectanglular area is highlighted
6. Verify that releasing the mouse button tiles the window in that rectangle
7. Verify that the remaining part of the screen prompts a dialog to select a
window to be tiled next to it.
[ Where problems could occur ]
The tiling-assistant extension modifies the default GNOME Shell behaviour for
arranging windows.
Problems could manifest when dragging a window with the mouse, when the
tiling-assistant extension is enabled which is true by default in Ubuntu
Desktop.
