Description Chuck Lidderdale 2010-10-23 02:25:18 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.4.5) 
OS:                Linux

I would have loaded Windows 7.  I can't touch a window but it goes full screen.  I might as well go sit at my wife's computer.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Load KDE



I think I'm going to try Gnome.

I think you are not interested in a solution.

Yes, I am interested in a solution.  You've plagiarized the look and 
feel of MS W-7.  Several of the features I liked about KDE are now gone. 
(now maybe I just can't fine them...) I was able to drag the menu bar to 
the right side of the screen - won't drag.  Every time I touch the top 
bar on a window [BAM] full screen.  And several other things that 
were/are different (my coffee hasn't kicked in yet).  Look, I liked KDE 
- it w.a.s KDE.  I do not like MS Windows - well I HATE MS - Why? 
Because I almost lost my job one day because an email I forwarded had a 
virus in it.  I wasn't affected because I was running Linux (&kde).  So 
anything that looks/feels/smells/acts ....

I don't know if you are trying to lure MS users over or if Bill Gates 
has cast a spell on all of you - but .....

and besides I couldn't find a "Send us a comment..." button.

Chuck

PS - way back when I could run my mouse off the side of the screen to 
change window - I lost that years ago.

PPS - thanks for getting back to me.  I expected to be blown off.

There is your problem, and a bug tracker is not suitable for support questions.

Please use a forum or an online help channel (IRC) to get help. Refer to http://kde.org/support/ how to find the official KDE forums and IRC channels.

Regarding the Window maximization feature, you can switch it off using the KWin settings: Right click on window title bar > Configure Window Behavior > Screen Edges > Maximizes windows by dragging
