I remember some desktops had a sticky windows feature, where windows close to eachother would snap together at their border and 'stick'. How can this be enabled in Ubuntu?

  • 'm No I've also tested , not working for me too. I think it's a bug over bug. And also I believe all apps for Ubuntu just are Thumb and they are not design for solving problems ;) Oct 17, 2014 at 19:26

To enable "Sticky Windows", enter terminal, then type ccsm. This will open the compiz settings manager. Then scroll down to window management, and select "Snapping Windows".

You may need to log out and then back in to load the changed settings.
