GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 337449
Allow me to move the top of a window off the top of the screen
Last modified: 2006-04-06 00:38:26 UTC
If I grab a window with Alt+click and move it, allow me to move the top of the window off the top of the screen. Here's why: 1) Normal users that don't know Alt+click won't ever lose their titlebars, because they will always move their windows by dragging the titlebars. 2) Advanced users that DO know Alt+click want this functionality. 3) To solve the problem where a user mistakenly holds Alt and clicks a window, and it moves off the top of the screen (I'll bet that this is the reason that this functionality is disabled): make it a hidden preference, and make the preference disabled by default.
