Windows are not restored when dragging from Right Half

[Eric-Chng]

• [x] This is a new bug that hasn't been documented in a closed issue or in the Readme.

This is with default dragging preferences

Steps To Reproduce:

1. Drag window/use shortcut to right side to make it right half. Tested on Google Chrome and VSCode window
2. Drag away from right half to try to restore
3. Window is not restored and instead resized to be a little wider (but not by much) than it was as right half.

Notes:

• Restore keyboard shortcut still works from right half
• Restore shortcut after dragging (to restore) does nothing
• Dragging to restore works from all other sides (left half, top half, bottom half)

Thanks for reporting and including details. This is kind of a weird restriction of resizing windows via the macOS accessibility API, and unfortunately there isn't a better way to handle it from the perspective of Rectangle. When using the accessibility API to tell the window which size to make a window, it will crop the window so that none of it appears offscreen. It's been a little while since I tested things out for this issue, but I remember trying to adjust the location of the window on drag so that more of it appeared on screen and it didn't work well.

Gotcha, so for now there's no fix other than to use the keyboard shortcut?

[rxhanson]

That's correct.
