An old blog post explains how it works a bit.


Snapped windows will not be overlapped by maximized windows maximized windows will only maximize in the screen space not used by snapped windows. You can also snap a window with Ctrl+Super+direction arrow key (or drag with mouse and hold down Ctrl key). You can also drag it with mouse cursor to the edge or corner of the screen to tile it there. With a resizable window in focus (eg not a fixed size dialog window) you can push Super+direction arrow key to immediately tile a window to that edge. It may need some tinkering to get it to work right.Ĭinnamon also has window tiling. You could install Gnome Shell on top of Linux Mint but to use it you'd need to switch your desktop session to Gnome Shell, so entirely replace your current desktop with Gnome Shell. Linux Mint uses Cinnamon, MATE and Xfce and Gnome Shell extensions don't work on those. IIRC Pop!_OS uses Gnome Shell and this is implemented through an extension they wrote.
