Raise Windows Together

Open wojteksurowka opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

This option is present in Restore Sessions settings, and my assumption was that it should, for a pair of tiled windows, raise the other one when one of them is brought to foreground e.g. by Alt-Tab. I could not make it working - am I doing something wrong?

Yes, you are right.

I could not make it working - am I doing something wrong?

In what cases does it not work? Is this the same issue as with https://github.com/nlpsuge/gnome-shell-extension-another-window-session-manager/issues/97?

Actually I never saw it working. This is not the same issue as #97 since there tiling and resizing both windows works before restore. Steps to reproduce are:

  1. Drag a window to the left edge of the screen, so it is maximised to the left half
  2. Drag another window to the right edge of the screen, so it is maximised to the right half. Now both windows fill together the entire screen
  3. Alt Tab to another application so its window covers partially both tiled windows
  4. Alt Tab to the left tiled window At this moment I would expect both left and right windows raised, however, only left one is raised by Alt Tab. The right one is still behind.
