Ubuntu – How to turn off Sticky Edges in Ubuntu Gnome

gnome

When I used Unity, I remember seeing the setting for the Sticky Edges in Settings -> Displays, but I can't find that option in Gnome. Where can I turn on/off Sticky Edges in Gnome?

Sorry for the late answer, but better late than never?

The setting you are looking for can be done graphically in dconf-editor, navigating to /org/gnome/shell/overrides and toggling the value edge-tiling, as appears below:

dconf-editor


To do this using a CLI, enter the command

gsettings set org.gnome.shell.overrides edge-tiling false

to turn off the tiling at the edge of the screen, or

gsettings set org.gnome.shell.overrides edge-tiling true

to set it back on.
