Cursor Selecting Edge of Windows
In the Win 10 that runs on my work PC, the cursor behavior to select the edge of a window in order to resize it with mouse is driving me nuts and I cannot figure out what setting to reconfigure to change the behavior.
The expected behavior is that when moving mouse to edge of window and the cursor hovers over the edge of the window, the cursor changes to an up-down/left-right/diagonal arrow and clicking the mouse enables manual window resizing.
The behavior that I observe is that the region where this behavior is enabled is now expanded beyond the edge of the window.. In other words, I can move the mouse so that the cursor is no longer over the active window, but instead over another window in the background, yet the cursor still associates with the active window and clicking activates the resize action.
The reason this is driving me nuts is that when I move the cursor off of the active window to another window in the background and click, what I actually want to do is activate that background window. The new behavior makes this routine action very troublesome. It becomes particularly annoying when the active window is placed such that there is not much screen real estate between its edge and the edge of the screen.
Is there a way to adjust settings so that this undesirable behavior is ended, i.e, the sensitivity of the cursor placement to the edge of active window is more sensitive, and therefore easier to select a background window when that is in fact where I place the cursor?
Spent countless time browsing Settings options and searching forums for a solution but much less a solution I haven't found someone articulate the same problem statement.
Appreciate help anyone can give.
