@zdenys, thanks for your report. I'm unsure why you would expect the whole area to be a dragging trigger. On this screen, the left blue part is a trigger, and on the screen shown after onboarding, the top, right, and bottom borders are used for that.

I've checked a few other apps, and I couldn't see examples of using areas considered the main part of the app, especially forms, as draggable areas.

Not a designer/developer, so I don't know the best practices honestly. Just like with the other bug I reported #29 my main point is that the dragging area is not the one I expect.

By default it's always the entire top part of an app. It works for Chrome, Alfred, Safari, Calculator, etc.

And in this initial app screen that is not the case which confused me as a user. I expect this area to trigger the drag:

Not this one:

I guess if the expected area was triggering the drag for me, I may not even have noticed that some much wider area is triggering the drag too. But the very fact that the expected one was not triggering the dragging confused me.

Seeing that the entire left part of the app screen triggers the drag caused me to question "why the right side part is not doing that?".

Now I am genuinely curious about what reasoning is behind not following the default practice of making the entire top part of the app to be a dragging trigger?

That said, my distilled ask is to make the entire top part of the app to be a dragging trigger, in alignment with common app behavior.

I'm not sure why the blue half was made a drag target here, but I agree that the top section of the window should be draggable. Happy to keep the blue draggable too, I don't think that matters.
