Cannot resize the VSCodium window in Gnome
Type: Bug
- Open VSCodium
- Try to resize the window grabbing it with the mouse pointer at the corners or any edges
- I can only use the default window size, maximize and minimize
- I'm running on Fedora 41 using the flatpak install of: Version: 1.95.3 Release: 24321 Commit: dc5a551c256719475d2d0959270e3836c9bbb632 Date: 2024-11-16T01:21:03.577Z Electron: 32.2.5 ElectronBuildId: undefined Chromium: 128.0.6613.186 Node.js: 20.18.0 V8: 12.8.374.38-electron.0 OS: Linux x64 6.11.7-300.fc41.x86_64

Have the same issue too. Fresh install of Debian 12, then install VSCodium via flatpak and have unable to resize VSCodium window by trackpad. The resize via window menu (Alt+Space -> Resize) works correctly.

It's an issue with Wayland.
Hey @gogbajbobo, @sanmue and @Tronde, can you try with the latest update?

Hi, still can not resize.
are you using the native window titlebar? I recomend you to switch to custom titlebar to workaround this

Hi and thanks, this fixed it.
another possible workaround: looks like @daiyam was right - I just switched desktop environment to "Gnome on Xorg" from the default "Gnome" (on Wayland) and window resizing works fine now
I cannot check anymore as I did stop using VSCodium.

This fixed the issue for me. Thank you!
