Bug ID: 465858
Summary: shift + drag does not interact with the tiling layout
if Both Shifts together enable Caps Lock
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 5.27.0
Platform: Archlinux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Custom Tiling
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: robcr...@gmail.com
CC: notm...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
I use the "Both Shifts together enable Caps Lock" feature (System Settings >
Input Devices > Keyboard > Advanced > Compatibility Options) since I also make
Caps Lock and additional Hyper. If this setup is in place, holding Shift makes
no difference in window resizing behavior. Unchecking "Both Shifts together
enable Caps Lock" produces the expected behavior.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In System Settings > Input Devices > Keyboard > Advanced > Compatibility
Options, check "Both Shifts together enable Caps Lock".
2. Configure a tiling layout with Meta + T.
3. Attempt to drag a window into a tile frame by holding Shift while dragging
it.
OBSERVED RESULT
Dragging simply moves the window normally without snapping it to any tile
frame.
EXPECTED RESULT
Dragging a window into the tile frame should snap the window into place,
resizing it to fit.
