Description makg10 2013-01-15 19:54:13 UTC

I've got custom settings for some of the applications which hide a title bar. For example, Firefox:
http://i50.tinypic.com/6rmzp2.jpg

Now the only way to maximize the window is to use the window controls on the right. Sometimes I want to move a Firefox window from one screen to another (I've got dual monitor setup). I have to do it with pressing ALT and drag it with mouse, although it automatically resizes the window to a smaller size.

Point being: it would be nice if KDE would allow me to maximize the window with combination ALT + Double Click, so I could get it done right away, while dragging.

Reproducible: Always

For clarification:
the window is undecorated and has buttons to min, max and close in the tabbar.

The user points feature extension regarding bModKeyHeld in events.cpp
It will be required to implement "doubleclicking" there what requires scheduling the actions (they're currently triggered immediately) an clicktime distance measuring.

This is not a trivial task.

Source "problem" seems that the window is NOT maximized but "quick maximized" what leads to immediate unmaximization when being dragged away for the edge.

@makg10
You should be able to just drag it against the upper border of the screen to get it remaximized on that screen, yesno?
Wouldn't that be much faster than dragging the client over, dropping it, and double click it?
