In order to run windowed programs at the maximum possible size I can set their resolution to the resolution of my monitor, but then there are several pixels off-screen below the window because the window is positioned below the Gnome Top Bar.
If I knew the size of the top-bar I could account for that, is there a way to find out what size it is exactly?
>Solution :
- Maximize an active window
- Then measure its size
- Apply the new calculated size on your target program window
Just a theory, not sure if wmctrl and xdotool are still working fine with Wayland.
