When a windows moved to left/right/top/bottom side it can no longer be resized or moved with mouse in maximized direction getting stuck in quasi-maximized state until "move to center/maximize" shortcut activated or maximize windows button pressed twice. For example windows moved to right can not be moved up or down, nor resized in vertical axis. Does not happen to windows moved to corners.

This is quite different from built-in edge tiling, which allows to un-tile window by simply dragging them. While this might be difficult to implement same functionality, I think windows should at a least stay resizable after being moved by the extension.

Ubuntu 20.10 / GNOME Shell 3.38.2

sry, can not reproduce this and not really sure what's happening. Can you provide a screenshot ?

Screenshot wouldn't convey the problem, so I recorded a short video comparing mouse behavior or edge tiled windows and windows snapped by Put Window:

I hope this explains the issue: I can not "unsnap" windows resized by Put Window using a mouse. Let me know if I could provide any further information or help to debug the issue. Thanks!

Ok, there are no round corners after moving the window to the right side e.g. gnomes build in snap mechanism is enabled and it is not possible to resize the window that was vertically maximized..
That's a known issue since gnome 3.2 and reported as #1

Thanks! Is it the same as #1 though? It looks like #1 is about opposite issue (mouse-tiled windows cannot be moved by extension). Just wondering maybe it is possible to resize window to match width/height but without triggering the maximized state (like it works in window snapped to corner for example)?
