How to disable auto resizing of windows when moved to the top? [duplicate]
This question already has an answer here:
(18.04) How to disable the window resizing when accidentally touching one of the screen edges?
1 answer
When I move a window close to the top, it snaps to maximum size. I am using Ubuntu 18.04, GNOME 3.28.2.
How do I disable that? I searched about six months ago, no way to disable back then.

Yes, solved! Thank you!
- These two worked on my ubuntu 18.04
1. gsettings set org.gnome.mutter edge-tiling false
2. dconf-editor
- These did not work
1. GNOME Tweaks (disable "Edge Tiling" not available)
2. gsettings set org.gnome.shell.overrides edge-tiling false
Thank you Kulfy, Hamza Saeed, vanadium, PRATAP.
