GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 581982
Double clicking a maximized window frame does not restore window
Last modified: 2020-11-06 20:06:41 UTC
Please describe the problem: Normally a double click on a window's titlebar the window should restore from maximized to user set size. This works in normal cases however when an application starts maximized and the user tries to performs this procedure in order to restore the window size(expecting a smaller window only covering part of the screen). The window flickers and for a brief moment as I assume it obtains the previous user set size but then goes back to cover the whole screen but not in maximized mode. Steps to reproduce: 1. Start firefox(mine starts in maximized mode, other applications does not) 2. Double click on titlebar Actual results: Window flicker and you get a window frame that is in non-maximized mode covering the whole screen Expected results: The window frame to become smaller Does this happen every time? Yes Other information:
