    Unable to minimise a maximised window


    So previously with the Snap Assist I was able to hold left click the toolbar as a maximised window and drag it down to minimise it, but now I can only maximise a minimised window like Google Chrome, why has this happened and how can I get this to work again?

    Edit: Apparently I can do this with the tabs in Google Chrome, but not the actual window itself..

    :)
