Bug ID: 464942
Summary: Quick tiling multiple windows, and then resizing the
windows, causes windows to connect and size-changes to
persist.
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 5.26.90
Platform: Neon
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Quick Tiling
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: te...@tutanota.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The quick-tiling-windows behave a lot like 'actual'-tiling-windows. After
manually resizing the new Quick tiling windows (i.e. with META+arrow keys), and
then resizing the windows, causes windows to connect with each-other and
size-changes to persist.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open at least 1 window
2. use default kwin shortcut to quick tile to vertical half: e.g. META+left
3. Drag to resize the window
4. Use quick tiling shortcuts again
OBSERVED RESULT
When I use META+arrow again after resizing, the adjusted window will quick-tile
into the manually adjusted size, and not to the expected 1/2 of the monitor.
Size and position persists when quick-tiling shortcuts are repeated, also for
newly opened windows.
Windows also connect with other windows when multiple windows are open.
EXPECTED RESULT
The expected result is that Quick-tiling shortcuts would always 're-snap'
windows to the fixed, designated position, such as the left-half of the monitor
with META+left, regardless of any manual resizing that happened since the last
quick-tiling action. Expected is that windows still behave like independent
floating windows after being quick-tiled to a certain position.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE Neon Testing Edition x86_64
KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.90
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.103.0
Qt Version: 5.15.8
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I also tested the new tiling feature in the 5.27 beta, which has similar
features to the unexpected behavior. I am reporting here specifically regarding
quick-tiling, and with the (possibly wrong) assumption that quick-tiling is
supposed to still function as before, independently from the new tiling
capabilities.
