Clarification - specifically the ability to resize without having to press Meta+T to enter custom tiling mode first. It does in fact have that feature. Can you attach a screen recording that shows it not working for you? Ok, so after a bit of testing it seems that it's specifically Chromium-based browsers that's buggy. Google Chrome straight up doesn't work unless using system title bar and borders - except it does work with the older Aero Snap, peculiarly. Also of note is that custom tiling click-to-drag does work with non-Google Chromium and Brave, albeit with some graphical glitches. Created attachment 156581 [details]

Update - I deleted my ~/.config/google-chrome folder and the good news is that click-and-drag now works. The bad news is that the resize lag is still a thing, and whereas before Aero Snap was free from the issue it's also suffering from the bug now. Closing as issue seems to be resolved; I am now able to resize Chrome windows snappily both under XWayland and Native. |
