As mentioned in OP, here is the screenshot showing context of entire desktop, with bright green hiding personal information.

I am assuming this is a gnome-shell problem. Every once in a while, when I maximize or tile (Win+Right) the IntelliJ window, a bottom fraction of the window (somewhere around a quarter) becomes impossible to interact with, with the mouse. Clicking in that lower area will give focus to the thing behind IntelliJ, and if it's a window, raise it to the foreground. if I restore the window so that it is not maximized, the entire window is interactive with the mouse once again. This also happened with GIMP. The attached "Screencast" is a recording. I had to crop it to hide personal information. The attached screenshot shows the state of my screen so you have context, with a bright green color used to replace personal information. For the first 10s of the recording, I simply moused over to show how the cursor changes around a quarter from the bottom of the screen. For the next 10s, I left click, then move, then left click, then move, until focus changes to Sublime, the window behind IntelliJ. For the remainder of the video I show that right-clicking and mousing over works fine on the top three quarters, until I reach the bottom again, and then the right click is sent to Sublime.
