SUMMARY When `Windows dragged to top edge` is off, grabbing the title bar and moving the window around will not un-maximise it (as in - restore state from before it was maximised). STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Go to Screen Edges -> Maximise: Windows dragged to top edge - off 2. Maximise a window 3. Drag the window via its title bar (i.e. few inches below) OBSERVED RESULT Window stays maximised (w/o borders, shadows etc). Since the window is in maxmised state still, dragging it to another display will resize it to the size of that display. So will dragging it back to the original display. EXPECTED RESULT Window should un-maximise (as it does when `Windows dragged to top edge` is on). Moving maximised window from one display to another may as well be expected to keep the window maximised. That would be similar to how one can rearrange fullscreen apps in multi-monitor setup in macOS. However, placing the window on the same screen and still having it maximised is counter-intuitive. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.88 Qt Version: 5.15.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I'm reporting this as wayland-generic. Might as well be the case in X11 - haven't checked.
Looks like that feature controls un-maximizing too. I'd recommend that you just turn it back on if you want the functionality.
Yes. I will most likely turn it back on. It's just that I've turned it off because I was trying to get this feature out of the way when using a 90 degree rotated screen with 3-window stack (snapping in quarters is weird in this rotation BTW) and decided to report back my impressions. Never mind the resolution, I still think that it's weird UX to have that toggle off resulting in windows staying maximised even though they're being dragged far away from any screen edge. Or at least the title bar is away, other window edges will obviosly still be touching screen edges since the window is the size of the screen (minus panels).
