(SOLVED) M3A2 Unmaximize Nautilus

I installed a fresh copy of Mageia 3 Alpha 2 LiveCD on my HP DC-7700 C2D system with 2gb of memory. It is the Gnome 3 version (32 bit) also. So far so good. No issues that I see and the installation went well.

I happen to open Nautilus for the first time and then maximized it. Now for the life of me, I can't seem to figure out how to unmaximize it. Someone on IRC told me to try Alt-F5 and it will unmaximize the window, it does work. Thanks to MrsB.

When I double click the top of the window, it will maximize but double clicking will not unmaximize it. I checked bugzilla but didn't see anythinig about this issue, and thought about creating a report, but now I'm not sure if this is a Gnome 3 issue or Mga issue.

Any ideas or thoughts?

Thnx.

Probably more some GNOME usability issue, but i'm not sure as i don't use GNOME and under KDE it works just as you'd expect.

I've just done a reinstall of M3A2, I like it so much I couldn't resist. :D

I found more about the nautilus issue.

Nautilus doesn't have a window titlebar when maximized and the doubleclick to maximize is a wm setting.

Thought I pass it along.

Maybe that's some new gnome shell "invention" ?
