Snap to half-screen not available in Ubuntu #214

jroedel commented 6 years ago

I'm using 1.0.0 installed through the Ubuntu ppa on Ubuntu 18.04 with 1366x768 resolution.

In Ubuntu (I'm not familiar with other distros), windows can be snapped to one half of the screen if their minimum width is less than half that of the available horizontal real estate.

It seems there is just one too many icons on the interface to be able to snap to half of the screen which would make things a lot easier. I think I'm using a pretty common resolution

Thanks!

@jroedel Thanks for your interest in Bookworm. I was not aware of this this feature to snap to half of the screen, probably will install a Ubuntu 18.04 VM and check this behaviour. Will be great if you can send a screen shot of the same - I had kept the number of icons in the menu to a minimum on the Bookworm header and contextualized the same as well, so not sure how to reduce the same without loosing quick access to required functionality.

It's a GNOME 3 feature. You should be able to test it on any distribution by launching GNOME 3 with the screen resolution given by @jroedel
