  1. Close button's accessibility for maximized vs snapped window


    Here's a mildly annoying behavior between window that is maximized vs snapped.

    • When window is maximized, you can move your mouse to the corner of upper right corner and click Close
    • When window is snapped (upper right quadrant or right side) and you move your mouse to the upper right corner, you no longer can click Close button, instead you have an option to change window size.

    Here's a video that shows this difference.

    I often like to use side by side windows and whenever I want to close right window I often fling mouse to the corner and try to click Close. I understand it's great to be able to change window size when window is snapped, but I don't think I've ever used that. Anyone knows if it's possible to change this behavior so that whenever I move mouse to the upper right corner, Close button is highlighted?

    in win 10, maximized window won't drag

    I had the same problem too. I had turned on Snap setting: Snap Window.

    This disallowed me to drag a maximized window from display 1 to display 2.

    Turning off the Snap Window, I couldnt move a Maximized window.

    It turns out that moving a maximized window works in Snap window mode On when you move that window to the other display fast. Moving it slow makes Windows think that you want to snap it, as if you are parking a car backwards and.. slow.

    Solution to move maximized windows:

    1. Keep Snap Window On
    2. For Snapping a maximized window, move your mouse slow to the edge of a display
    3. For moving a maximized window (to a different display), move the maximized window fast
