Bug ID: 480848
Summary: Windows are resizable in their width and height by
double-(or triple-)clicking their borders
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 5.27.10
Platform: openSUSE
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: input
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: i...@chello.at
Target Milestone: ---
Hi,
it would be a super-great feature in KDE – and make me love it even more – if I
could double-click a window border to maximize its width or height. Windows,
for instance, supports the latter (though not well known) since...ages. It
still doesn't so with the former which is a pity.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Double-click on the borders of basically resizable windows.
OBSERVED RESULT
Performing 1. on left, right and bottom borders does nothing, on the top border
it maximizes the window – but that works on all of the empty space of the title
bar anyway (and that shouldn't change).
EXPECTED RESULT
1. Double-clicking a horizontal border maximizes the height of the window.
Optionally (in a multi-monitor setup) customizable for:
a. use just the display with the mouse cursor on it (default) or
b. use all displays that are stacked on each other
(with the option to achieve this with a triple-click, in case a. is
selected).
2. Double-clicking a vertical border maximizes the width of the window.
Optionally (in a multi-monitor setup) customizable for:
a. use just the display with the mouse cursor on it (default) or
b. use all displays that are placed side-by-side.
(with the option to achieve this with a triple-click, in case a. is
activated).
