[Bug 389290] Re: Windows resized via keyboard do not snap

 

I explained further in the comment on 2009.10.17, but basically I expect
the window edges to jump to the next edge (side of desktop or side of
another window) when I use the shift+arrow keys to move or resize
windows. This is and has been the behavior for Metacity for quite some
time, and as I primarily use the keyboard to open/arrange windows, it is
something I use quite often.

If you would like an example, say I open a terminal, which is on the
left side of the screen and is the only window open. If I want to move
it to the right edge using the keyboard, I would use "Alt+Space m" then
use "Shift+RightArrow" to jump-move the window to the right edge. In
Metacity this works, but not with Compiz. Instead it will only move the
window a constant number of pixels (whether I use Shift or not).
