SUMMARY

I use a tiling script and have the issue that resizing maximized windows from borders or grip (hence unmaximizing the window) breaks tiling because kwin does not seem to update the maximization status (it seems to retain the maximized status even when the window is clearly not maximized anymore)

Original report of the issue to the tiling script: https://github.com/Jazqa/kwin-quarter-tiling/issues/81#issuecomment-603441988

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable a tiling script
2. Maximize a window
3. Resize the window from borders or grip

OBSERVED RESULT

The (non-maximized) window is not tiled

EXPECTED RESULT

The (non-maximized) window should be tiled

Basically clientMaximizeSet is not triggered after resizing a maximized window (and thus unmaximizing it)

Are those windows maximized only in one dimension, e.g. maximized horizontally or maximized vertically?

The issue seems to only happen when windows are maximized in both

Cannot reproduce in latest plasma. Reopen if the issue is still present.
