[Bugs] Flickering

[flickleafy]

First of all, congratulations for this nice extension! I spent weeks trying to find anything that could do a decent job of splitting screens, in a way that looked like FancyZones, and I found that gSnap do a decent job.

But, I am getting some weird side effects, caused by flickering, and these flickerings are quite annoying, and I found 3 possible sources that causes the flickering:

• Dialogs: some applications have fixed size dialogs, and I noticed that gSnap tries to resize these dialogs to fit in the same zone where is located the main window of the app.
• Fixed size windows: Some applications just have fixed size windows, and it is much possible it falls on the same problem of the first case.
• Zones flickering: Some times, it shows the layout of the zones, even on times I am not moving the windows to anywhere, and mainly, it happens when I am clicking on one of the 3 window buttons (minimize, maximize, close).

I think that to fix the 2 first, you would need to find a way to check if the window is a fixed type, and in case it is, make gSnap to dont try resize them. To fix the last one, probably can be solved if you reduce the sensitivity near that top-right buttons on the windows (minimize, maximize, close).

Currently I am using Ubuntu 22.04.

• Can you give me an example for the first two cases?
• Are you using Wayland or Xorg?

One example of the fixed size dialog issue was with the rename dialog from the application 'Video Duplicate Finder' (the option 'Show tabs' was selected in Gsnap). Today I am using Xorg, but, when I had a bug with that, it probably was Wayland... Since that bug happened long ago, I can't find a way to replicate that with my current setup, even if my Ubuntu is still the same 22.04 release.
