No. You can easily drag windows to the top left or right edge. The labeling is confusing. Above it, you have a graphic with the top left corner marked by default which makes it even more confusing. If there are multiple different things involved, they either shouldn't be shown together, or it should be made clear that they are different things. If they are somehow related to each other, it needs to be shown/explained in which way they are related. This is bad interface design. I guess whoever designed it knew what they wanted and it escaped them that someone who doesn't know what they were trying to accomplish is only being confused by this.
