MikeLoco14: Yes, corner drag functionality is already in natty (which will likely become Ubuntu 11.04 in April 2011). As the blog post from 9 October 2010 notes: "The credit for this work goes to Cody Russell". Cody is an Ubuntu Member, see Cody's Launchpad page:

(I appreciate that there has been a couple of years where the situation has regressed as a result of theme changes). I don't currently know how much of the final solution will be able to be backported to previous Ubuntu versions (theme changes will be easier than code changes), but I'm sure others will investigate what is possible work; for example see the note at the top of this bug report: "Working grip backported to gtk2 already available in ppa: https://launchpad.net/~bratsche/+archive/gtk " -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to metacity in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/160311 Title: Resizing windows by grabbing window borders is difficult [please no more comments; patches welcome] -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
