(The > post is long enough...) I still don't know why it happened. After some doing I managed to get the window back, but that windows get arbitrarily get moved off the display shouldn't happen at all. > > [1]: I think I moved it into the top left corner to see if it would be > > maximised and/or get tiled and then it somehow disappeared.

It does make sense, > and here's how: Ok that's a really long explanation, and it's not what I'm talking about. I hope I can attach a screenshot. What I'm talking about is having both the checkboxes enabled for Maximize and Tile at the same time. Both of them are for when dragging windows. That doesn't make sense: The windows that are being dragged can only be maximized or tiled, not both at the same time. And I still don't know what the Behaviour thing is about. That whole thing needs quite a lot of work before it might become understandable by users.
