Description Matthias Clasen 2013-03-17 16:45:15 UTC 
with csd in gtk, we switch off window borders when maximized, and we need to do the
same when half-tiled, otherwise we get an odd translucent frame around the
half-tiled window.

This means that half-tiled needs to be represented in the window state somehow.
Comment 1 Emmanuele Bassi (:ebassi) 2013-11-27 17:02:16 UTC 
should we have a property like "_NET_WM_WINDOW_TILED" with the edge, e.g.:

  LEFT
  RIGHT

though that would only cover Mutter's tiling, and not eventual future tiling modes, in which case we would probably need a _GTK_WINDOW_TILED property instead.
Comment 2 GNOME Infrastructure Team 2021-07-05 13:47:54 UTC 
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
