            Bug ID: 480223
           Summary: Magnetic borders are forced for quicked tiled windows
    Classification: Plasma
           Product: kwin
           Version: 5.27.10
          Platform: Debian testing
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Quick Tiling
          Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: patrick.boettc...@posteo.de
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY

Quick tiling (starting with 5.27)  two or more windows on screen edges (half,
quarter) forces that their touching borders become magnetic with each and when
resizing one, the others are resized in accordance. 

The is user-experience regression as in former version half/quarter-screen-edge
quick-tiling was available but when resizing the windows the tiling was removed
for this particular window.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Drag a window to the left screen edge (it becomes half or quarter tiled)
2. Drag a second windows to the right screen edge (it becomes half or quarter
tiled)
3. Resized one of the windows 

OBSERVED RESULT
The other one is resized as well.

EXPECTED RESULT
The tiling is deactivated for the resized window and the other one does not
change its size, as in previous versions.

I understand the magnetic border is an interesting feature, but I'd like to
have a possibility to get the old behavior back.
