Bug ID: 472368
Summary: Please allow disabling revert-to-original-size on
quick tiling unsnap
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 5.27.5
Platform: Debian testing
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: Quick Tiling
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: z.figur...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Previous to the quick tiling changes introduced in 5.27 (I think?), quick-tiled
windows would retain their new shape when moving or resizing out of their tiled
position. I.e. quick-tiling was effectively a permanent move-and-resize action.
After 5.27, quick-tiled windows remember their previous position and revert to
it when undoing the quick tiling by moving. This is, broadly, a change that
makes sense, I understand why it was made, I think it can be an improvement to
usage, to be clear. However it's not the way I'm used to tiled windows working
and it can be an annoyance. I would like a way to revert to the previous usage.
Currently I've gotten into the habit of resizing quick-tiled windows by their
corners after quick-tiling them, to make them remember their new size. This
works, but I'd like to not have to make this workaround.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Resize a window arbitrarily.
2. Drag it to the left side of the screen so that it quick-tiles to the left
half of the screen.
3. Drag it again off the left side of the screen.
OBSERVED RESULT
The window will revert to its previous size.
I would like to configure a way for it to not do that, but instead retain its
current size—half the screen—the way it was in old Plasma.
