Group Windows Often Stuck in On Position #41

Open randoogle opened 7 years ago

randoogle commented 7 years ago

I often find that when I go to drag a window somewhere, Shelltile wants to group it with pretty much anything I move it over. I'm not holding down Ctrl, or any other shortcut key, yet it insists that I group it with another window. Often, this devolves into me having a bunch of windows that are way too narrow (height-wise or width-wise), and I get frustrated and turn Shelltile off. Sometimes I go in and disable grouping by following your steps to modify tiling.js, but that goes away with any updates.

I should mention that this isn't a constant/consistent problem, but it is frequent throughout the day.

I assume I'm having this problem because I'm running on Wayland, but I thought I'd let you know.

I've not tested it on Wayland, but we know there are problems. Don't know if this problem is related to wayland but from my experience the tiling mode always stops running short after you release Ctrl and Super on X. I should install Fedora on Virtualbox, but if someone using Fedora can give an advice on the reason of the problems I can try to fix them.
