Description

hrev58180 on an iMac from 2011

If I click any window resize gadget, the window is closed. So it's pretty easy to do a wrong move and lose your window.

The window is just minimized, not closed. You can still access it from the deskbar, for example.

That may be on purpose. I think the change in (new) line 262 of DefaultWindowBehaviour.cpp in https://review.haiku-os.org/c/haiku/+/344 results in that behaviour (to minimize if the control is just clicked instead of dragged).

I didn't know about that and FWIW, I don't particularly like it. IMO it's quite unintuitive to have this additional behaviour just on the resize corner. You can double-click anywher on the window border plus the tab to hide a window. Doing that on single-click just on the resize widget is strange.

Is it possibly an unintended sideeffect of the patch linked by madmax? At least its commit message doesn't mentioned that change in behaviour.

I think that's not intentional, and should be removed. Usually, minimizing happens only on double click (on the window tab), why not do the same here?
