I don't see anything obvious in System Settings->Window > Behaviour. in addition to suggestion "alt+drag" and disable "feature", this is just to mention how i set up my kde desktop. when i open windows for tiling and positioning, i open windows with a reduced height and desired width, then position windows to where i want them. i set up with pre open of 4 konqueror file browsers and 4 terminal windows to '4 corners', and 3 firefox windows to '3 corners'. when i activate desired windows, i <middle mouse click> sizing button to give a full top to bottom window for viewing. when i need full width, i <right mouse click> sizing button for full width. when i have windows open that i am working with and they over lay each other, i use <alt+tab> to switch between them. when i have a bunch of files to move around to various directories, i open a konqueror window, set it up with splits of 'top-bottom' and 'left-right' and expand it to full size. only problem that i find is when i exit kde and later reopen it, windows do not always reopen in same order that i originate them. i look forward to having a new box that i can use dual or quad monitors with and not have to have so much clutter on this single monitor's task bar. -- peace out. in a world with out fences, who needs gates. tc.hago. g . _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org
