Aha!  *smile*  There are some finer controls there  --  ones
which  I  never spotted before. I am not entirely sure  what
the  differences between "border snap zone" and "window snap
zone" actually are. I'll find out. Thanks for that.

The  gripe  I sometimes have is the fact that, when  windows
are  set  to be movable when maximised, it makes it hard  to
discern  maximised  windows from ones that merely  hover.  A
bigger  gripe  is the lack of snaps in  dual-head  monitors,
including  the  snapping of pane borders to the gap  between
monitors.  It  could probably be implemented  although  it's
just an itch-scratch-ware/feature.

Best wishes,

Roy
