Bug ID: 405562
Summary: Have a option to automatically hide boarders of
maximized window
Product: kwin
Version: 5.15.3
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Screen space is scarce, when a user maximizes a window, he expects the maximum
space possible dedicated to this window.
This is especially useful for rich features apps, such as digikam, IDE, photo
editing...
At the moment there is an option to do it for each individual windows, which is
tedious and lost after the app is closed or a reboot.
Or a user can have special settings for a window. But those settings although
useful are hard to grasp, error prone, tedious to configure if you want to do
it for say 5 windows and unreliable at least according to my usage.
So the current state is that the user has a two options one non-permanent, the
other at best tedious.
I am still very grateful for those features.
I think we can offer a better alternative yet in having kwin having an option
to hide the boarders of maximized windows.
Maybe this can be implemented through a kwin script.
Someone made a script for this for firefox : https://store.kde.org/p/1199110
And there is to be one before Plasma 5 https://store.kde.org/p/1112547
