Bug ID: 448098
Summary: Trying to drag tabs in Chrome to reorder them suddenly
always produces a new window
Product: kwin
Version: 5.22.5
Platform: Kubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: nexus20072...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Since the last time Chrome updated, clicking and dragging tabs always creates a
new window and they can't be dragged back into another Chrome window. Keyboard
shortcuts of Shift+Ctrl+PgUp/PgDn do allow tabs to be merged back into a
window, but not being able to reorder tabs is a workflow killer.
Several people seem to have reported the same thing with the latest Chrome
build (97.0.4692.71) and I'm not 100% sure this is a KWin issue but it seemed
the logical place to report for Plasma as it's to do with window management and
the issue reportedly doesn't exist using the same Chrome build under Xfce or
Gnome. There's current discussion of this issue at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-2d/+bug/935713
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install latest Chrome.
2. Create several new tabs.
3. Try to drag a tab to reorder them.
OBSERVED RESULT
A new window is created rather than tabs being able to be reordered.
EXPECTED RESULT
A new window should only be created if the tab is dragged out of the window,
and tabs should be able to be dragged into an existing Chrome window.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: using Kubuntu 21.10

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
