Bug Description

While one can quickly grab the titlebar from a maximized window to unmaximize the window and allow dragging, one must drag downwards in order to achieve the unmaximization.

I propose that it be implemented so that if one were to pull sideways (horizontally), the same unmaximization function will still apply. This could be beneficial to those with multiple monitors.

Thank you for bringing this bug to our attention. However, a paper cut should be a small usability issue, in the default Ubuntu install, that affects many people and is quick and easy to fix. So this bug can't be addressed as part of this project.

- The problem described here arises with dual monitors ,which isnt the most common user setup.
For further information about papercuts criteria, please read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PaperCut.

Don't worry though, this bug has been marked as "Invalid" only in the papercuts project.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug. The compiz program that we currently use in Ubuntu is a C++ re-write of the original compiz and was announced the 4th July 2010. Therefore, the bugs that were reported before that date, will be marked as "Won't Fix" as they probably exist in the original program which is not stored in launchpad. (The last LTS that used the old compiz is the 10.04 which is not supported anymore).
