Unexpected window moved to another monitor before expanding to full height. #164

Hi thank you for wintile, it is one of my favourite and most useful utilities.

Up until recently when moving a window it would only change monitor if I used a key binding of <Super>+<Shift>+<Direction key>. Since an update the window will jump to another monitor before going full-height it will also do so without the use of shift. While the shift key binding is specific to my configuration it does seem incorrect that the window navigates to another monitor before expanding to full height.

<Super>+<Left> or <Super>+<Right>

Move a tile in that direction. If it's at the edge of a screen, it will go full-height
If a tile is more than 1 column wide and on the edge in that direction it will shrink by 1 column

Describe what you're doing, what you expect to happen, and attach the debug logs.

If a window is NOT ALREADY TILED, <Super>+<Left> or <Super>+<Right> will make it go full height in that direction. If it IS ALREADY TILED, you can grow a window with <Super>+<Ctrl>+<Arrow>.

I hope that helps.

@Shannanigans, I just wanted to follow up for a few reasons.

  1. I hope you didn't think I was trying to be rude by capitalizing certain phrases.
  2. Were you able to grow the windows with <Super>+<Ctrl>+<Arrow> ?
  3. <Super>+<Shift>+<Arrow> is the standard Gnome hotkey for moving the window to another monitor, it's not just you.
