Some Desktop Environment Questions
Hello! I have been messing around with bazzite before I fully switch over soon. A couple of things that I would like to get help on if possible
I am on the Gnome desktop environment
- Can I make it so when I drag apps to the top of the screen they full screen completely? (image 1 is how it is, image 2 is what I want)
- Can I hide the topbar when I fullscreen an application? (image 3)
- Can I enable middle mouse button drag to scroll, like on windows and some other DE I have used in the past?
Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!

Open the Extension Manager, open the Tiling Shell preferences, and enable the option to drag to the top to maximize the window (like the screenshot but mine is in Portuguese sorry!)

On browsers and some apps like Discord you can just press F11 but it doesn't work for Steam as it doesn't have a fullscreen mode it's just maximised
"Can I enable middle mouse button drag to scroll, like on windows and some other DE I have used in the past?"
This is handled per app iirc, on Firefox you can enable the "Use autoscrolling" option on settings
Thank you 🙏
I see, alternatively is it possible to have it hide unless I hover over it?
hmm I don't think there's an option for it sadly, maybe with some extension
vanilla gnome is really poor on bar customisation
Gotcha, Thanks for responding!
yw!
