Window not resizing on gnome shell
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
I am using archlinux with gnome shell 3.14.3-2 and I am unable to resize windows using eather alt+f8
or alt+space -> resize
.
Pressing alt+f8
and the moving the mouse moves the window, while it is suppose to (and used to) resize it. Same goes for alt+space -> resize
.
Has anyone even experienced the same issue ? Is there a known fix ?

Yes, I can confirm this behavior. Most likely a bug... You can always use the arrows to resize. Another way: while holdingSuper/Win
key down, click&drag with the middle mouse button/scroll wheel.

I made most of this irrelevant by using a tilling window manager extention (shellshape) but still it's good to be able to resize floating windows from time to time. Thank you for the Super+middle button tricks, the bad thing is it can't be used on touchpads

It can be used on touchpads too. Open a terminal and run:gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences resize-with-right-button true
(this swaps middle-click and right-click when used with Super). You can then resize with Super + touchpad right-click + touch&drag.

If you cannot resize with the "Super" or Windows key down and using the middle "scroll wheel" button on the mouse...
Try using "ALT" and the middle button. I could only resize on the top right corner, but I still was able to get it done.
It seems that the gtk interface is not wholly baked. The rounded edges also have the black corner, showing that it is a symbolic rounded edge and not drawn by the display engine.
