GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 747652
Resize cursor not appearing when at the edge of a window
Last modified: 2015-04-10 22:43:10 UTC
With the recent upgrade to GNOME 3.16 the window resize cursor is no longer appearing when moving with the mouser to the edge of a window. Once you actually click the left button in this area, you can resize the window just as usual and the appropriate cursor is appearing. This is unintuitive as you have to know where to click beforehand, which is something only "power" users are capable of. Refer to the attached screenshots for details.

By the way: This has also been discovered and discussed by others [1], so I'm not the only one confused about this change/bug. [1]: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1518622
Works for me for both server side and client decorations (gnome-terminal and gedit) ... maybe an issue with the cursor theme configuration?
