Description Richard Fearn 2009-11-19 18:58:00 UTC
Description of problem:

If a terminal (say) is opened, and maximised, and a second terminal is then opened but left at its default size, attempting to drag the smaller terminal causes the larger terminal to move instead.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

gnome-desktop-2.28.1-3.fc12.x86_64

How reproducible:

Every time, if the first terminal is maximised by double-clicking its title bar.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open a terminal
2. maximise it by double-clicking its title bar
3. open a second terminal
4. attempt to move the smaller terminal by dragging its title bar
  
Actual results:

The maximised terminal is brought to the foreground and moves as the mouse is moved.

Expected results:

The smaller terminal should move with the mouse.

Additional info:

I have had the same behaviour with other windows too; I don't think it's limited just to terminals.

I do however think you have to maximise the first window by double-clicking its title bar (clicking the maximize button doesn't have the same effect).

That must be a problem of whatever window manager you are using. Compiz ?

No, not Compiz. Just standard GNOME.

I'm now using gnome-desktop-2.28.2-3.fc12.x86_64 on a different laptop, and still get the same problem.
