Make dock windows resizable but do not allow tiling (!2253) · Merge requests · Plasma / KWin · GitLab

Luca Carlon requested to merge lcarlon/kwin:resize_dialog into master Apr 16, 2022

This is a proposal to support MR https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/plasma-framework/-/merge_requests/500. The final target is implementing what is requested in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=332512.

With this patch kwin should make docked windows in wayland resizable, while preventing the user from tiling. MR https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/plasma-framework/-/merge_requests/500 would then be able to startSystemResize even when the docked window is frameless.
