I can't dock panels back to main Maya window. I can drag floating windows anywhere (channel box, attribute editor etc.) but blue bar showing place to dock a panel never appears, not on Linux. I can dock panels when I drag using tabs, but tabs exist only if more than one panel exists in a window.
Are you using multi monitor setup with different resolutions? I would recommend installed the Maya 2017 Update 3 as some of the UI and docking issues may have been dealt with. let me know if the update does the trick for you.
I have one monitor only. And I have Update 3 installed, default preferences. I've checked Fedora 24 (KDE 5) and Centos 7 (KDE 4) - same results. What distro are you running? Maybe I could install it just to check if that changes anything.
@tomekp1981 Cent OS 7.2.. also it seems their is a bug on the Linux side in which the blue bar disappears and makes docking impossible (or should I say re-docking) On workaround that the QA team found, was to use the "Standard" Desktop effects instead of "compiz" settings.
Let me know if that is helpful. Also this does look like a lingering bug, so I will log this with Development. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Turning desktop effects on/off doesn't change anything in my case. But I'm glad you can replicate my problem and you're working on it. Btw, is there a way to view support cases other than my own? Like the name you gave (MAYA-80196) - can I put it somewhere to track it. Is there a general maya bug tracker, where we can view reported issues?
@cornelh I have a simple idea, that could work as a solution. As I said earlier, docking windows by grabbing tabs instead of window borders, works fine. If we could show tabs always, even when there's only one in a window, problem would be solved. We would waste some space, but it's better than not being able to dock windows. And having tabs always visible might be available as a preference.
The problem stays The only way I could found is to switch to another Workspace like "Animation" or "Rigging". Trying to switch back to "Classic" would lead to Fatal Error though so be careful. Dudes from Autodesk, keep that one on your radar please, it's 4 years since that ticket is here and there are still no fixes or not even official suggestion or solution from your side. Would you please give us at least something as a solution. Thank you.
Rocky with Kde! Interesting. Definitely works with one pixel drag but must be on both the windows edge and intersecting the location drop trigger bar (bluebar drop visual locator) on fedora37 KDE 5.
