Description: A Kwin script that truely maximizes your screen space by hiding the title bars of your windows when they are maximized. You can configure a blacklist from the script settings. There is also an optional screen edge listener to toggle it off/on (look in your screen edge listener settings).
This is the Plasma 6 version. The Plasma 5 version can be found here: https://www.pling.com/p/2018573/
Based on (but not forked from) bahamondev/hide-titles https://store.kde.org/p/1354715Last changelog:
v1.2.0
* Add Optional Feature to Hide Tiled Window Titles (thanks https://github.com/Hou-Rui) * Prevent double trigger of screen edge listener
9Thanks! Does what it says, can't always count on that!
If there was bit of criticism, it is that the screen edge action sometimes leaves the window title open after the mouse moves away. And, maybe an improvement would be to have it overlay the window instead of move it's contents, that would create a more fluid experience.
Thanks for the review!
- I have also observed this bug, it seems to be a problem with Kwin double-activating the listener. I haven't been able to figure out a way to reproduce, so haven't reported. I guess I could add a short cooldown to the listener to resolve this though.
- Having the title bar overlay the window is unfortunately beyond the capabilities of a Kwin script. However, you may be able to achieve this effect with https://store.kde.org/p/2151931
