Description Elijah Newren 2004-10-15 04:55:43 UTC
This will be a tracker bug for moving and resizing windows, and perhaps some
placement related bugs if they are constraint related.  I will start it off by
adding the following dependencies in a minute:

 81704  implement edge resistance
 86644  resize should have a shift option like move does
 91459  allow mouse to interact with keyboard resize (similar to keyboard move)
 96743  allow dragging windows between workspaces
109553  simultaneous move+resize configure doesn't work right
112478  alt-shift then click doesn't work; alt-click then shift does
113601  maximize vertically,horizontally should toggle
116601  Staccato movement with repeat keys using keyboard resize
122196  windows show up under vertical panels
122670  keyboard resize hold-down-arrow results in jumps
124582  shift-arrow keyboard movement operates in two directions instead of one
126497  end move/resize and revert to orignal state upon hitting Esc or
        alternate button
130404  can't fullscreen an unresizable app
130834  shift+keyboard resize is odd
133145  maximizing gvim obscures part of its status line
137097  keybinding workspace-switch for windows doesn't show indicator
141171  ability to move all windows of an application to another desktop
143145  clamp windows to screen size on initial map
149867  fixed aspect ratio windows are difficult to resize
152898  no way to move a window off the top of the screen
154706  bouncing weirdness at screen edge with keyboard move or resize
Comment 1 Elijah Newren 2005-07-29 20:33:52 UTC
312007  windows with minimum size hints can move during attempted resize
Comment 2 Elijah Newren 2005-07-31 02:04:48 UTC
310888  several snap-move and snap-resize problems, especially with wireframe
312104  Metacity can resize the wrong part of the window
Comment 3 André Klapper 2020-11-06 20:07:47 UTC
bugzilla.gnome.org is being replaced by gitlab.gnome.org. We are closing all old bug reports in Bugzilla which have not seen updates for many years.

If you can still reproduce this issue in a currently supported version of GNOME (currently that would be 3.38), then please feel free to report it at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/metacity/-/issues/

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
