Starting maybe a few days ago, holding Alt near the corner of a window and middle-clicking, which used to turn the cursor into a window-resizer, no longer does anything. I tried other variants (other buttons, the Super key) and none seem to do it.
Any suggestions for how to get it back? This is F25 and I update regularly.
Thanks, Matt

Which desktop? Xfce, Mate, KDE, Gnome? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@alldigital.com - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 226437340 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - If the enemy's in range...so are you! - ----------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't remember seeing this work with GNOME on Wayland. Just checked a few things, and noticed that Alt+Mouse3 resize doesn't work but Alt+Mouse1+Mouse2 (emulated middle) does resize. Odd, right? Also, GNOME Tweak Tool has an option under "Windows" titled "Resize with secondary-click" which allows resizing with Alt+Mouse2.

Thanks! Yes, maybe it's been broken for longer than I thought. Sometimes my hands get worse and then I need it more. I'm on Gnome (thanks, Rick Stevens, for asking the relevant question) and Gordon, I turned on Alt+Mouse2 in the tweak tool--it works!
