Detailed steps to reproduce the problem:
- I reproduced starting with empty, default prefs. (defaults delete...)
- Create a profile, and set its Window/Settings for New Windows/Style setting to Full Screen
- Create a window using the profile. the window opens full screen.
- move the cursor to the top and hit the green window button at the top left of the title bar (after it appears) to exit full screen. (also same behavior if you change the style with the Window menu)
- try to move the window by dragging its title bar. The drag action is ignored, the window is not draggable
WORKAROUND after the bad behavior happens 6. use the window menu to change the "Window Style" from "Normal" to anything except "Full Screen" 7. change it back to "Normal" 8. moving the window by dragging its title bar works properly.
note: the bad behavior doesn't happen unless the initial window open is "Full Screen" as specified by its profile.
What happened:
Windows born in full screen style and restored to "Normal", either using the Mac OS "green" window control at the top left or by setting its Window/Window Style to "Normal" in the menu are then not movable by dragging the title bar.
What should have happened:
Exiting full screen should produce a fully "Normal" window that can be dragged normally.
I noticed this approximately 2 beta releases ago.
