--- Comment #2 from Robert <kd...@osndok.com> ---
I would like to express my support/vote for this to be implemented. With
today's widescreen monitors, vertical screen real-estate is at a premium, many
apps pile on additional layers (like a web browser: menus, tabs, search-bar,
etc).
I've spent my whole day trying to find a window manager that supports a
"titlebar on the left", and was elated to find even the (know known to be
broken) titlebarPosition mechanics, and after *NEARLY* giving up (after far too
many hours tracing through the unfamiliar kwin source code) I was elated to
find the DecoratorPosition attribute (which does not share the 'title bar'
identifier), frustrated at my inability to locate a theme that uses it, at own
experimentation of it being broken (in fact, a bit worse than FabiB reports),
and ultimately found my way to this bug entry (as I came here to file such a
ticket myself).
Much thanks to Martin's specificity, that I can now, at least, track down an
old (or specialized) distro to test this interface design with a precise
version number (<=4.10)!
I also appreciate (having actually *LOOKED* at the source code), that this
support has not been ripped out.
I didn't want to silently pass by this ticket, because if everyone does, there
would be no feedback/demand for this feature.
If I might make a minor request... please replace the TODO questioning the
removal of this feature:
* kwin/abstract_client.cpp @ 565
*
https://github.com/KDE/kwin/blob/5b4eb80c8fdb6ea72c6046389578421b00824c6f/abstract_client.cpp#L565
...with a link to this ticket. That would have saved me so much time!
