Maybe it is related, but window titles are not hiding when tiling the windows.

Removed the extension and reinstalled it, still the same problem persist.

@jonian sorry to tag you directly. I really love this extension.

Would you have some hint for my case? I know some little javascript I could try something, I just don't know how to setup the environment to work with gnome extensions.

I really appreciate any input from you. Thank you.

Hi @paulo-roger, apologies for the late response, you can tag me any time your want, no problem. About the issues you are having:

When a window is maximized in the secondary screen it auto-hides the title bar, even though the toggle Restrict functionalities to the primary screen is activated.

This setting has some issues with client side decorated (CSD) windows. The extension uses CSS to hide the headerbars/titlebars and there is no way to know, in which screen the window is. If you are on wayland this issue happens with more GTK apps than on xorg because on xorg apps that don't have headerbars use server side decorations.

Maybe it is related, but window titles are not hiding when tiling the windows.

This is an issue that appeared on gnome 44 and can't be fixed by the extension. There is a workaround for this but it is not reliable and results in gnome-shell crashing. I have reported the issue on gnome tracker here.

@jonian, Thank you so much. You are very kind.

I use X11, so it is odd for this issue to happen? Maybe another extension might be conflicting? I will disable all and leave only Unite and then report back.

I see. Thanks for letting me know!
