[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1713650] Re: Can't Alt+drag windows at all any more
Gnome now differs from every single other window manager. I understand that alt+drag interferes with some former mac users' workflows, but really, we've been here for 20 years and they just arrived... why should we change our workflows to suit theirs? Can we please revert to the default, and make this a tick-box option upon installation, or in keyboard settings? (Ie. "Do you use . names of applications " or even better, put the option in those applications. Can anyone link to where Gnome made this decision? TLDR: it's super frustrating that Gnome now has a different default shortcut key from every single other window manager. -- 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/1713650 Title: Can't Alt+drag windows at all any more Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Alt+drag doesn't move windows like it should.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1299836] Re: Alt+mouse move doesn't drag window any more
The Gnome project have changed some default key combinations that have existed for 30+ years. I don't think this is acceptable. For reference, the new key combination is Super+drag. Alt+Tab has been changed to Alt+~. And the list goes on. I think Ubuntu will do well to maintain the age old defaults. 100 000 users each having to spend an hour trying to figure out why their keys don't work, and having to dig into config files to fix it, is 100 000 man hours wasted doing something really menial. ** Also affects: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to metacity in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1299836 Title: Alt+mouse move doesn't drag window any more Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in metacity package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Under Ubuntu 14.04 beta, in Gnome Flashback Session with Metacity, the Alt hotkey doesn't work anymore for moving windows. In Ubuntu 12.04 pressing Alt key and clicking into a window could be used to move the window; this doesn't work anymore. The shortcut key can be changed away from Alt to Super (Windows) key, eg. using gnome-tweak-tool (Window -> Window Action Key). Interestingly, when configuring Super key, it actually works when pressing the Super key; but when configuring the Alt key it doesn't work. The key can also be changed directly in dconf-editor, under org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences.mouse-button-modifier. This allows to set other keys than Alt and Super; and eg. configuring actually makes the Control key usable as Window Action Key; but again when configuring the Alt key cannot be used for window movement. This also affects the other actions available via the window action key (window resizing, and opening window context menu).
