I'm running KDE Neon and I cannot move the Media Center 27 by dragging the titlebar using any skin. This happened periodically with MC 26, but worked more often than not. Now it seems like the problem is still in MC 27. Alt-F7 won't let me move it either.
Any ideas?
Thanks

I suppose this should have been in MC27 Linux, but to answer my question, there is a very small area to the left of the menu and to the right of the menu that you can grab and move the window.

It's odd that you have to hit a small target.  If I grab and drag anywhere to the right of the last menu (help) and to the left of the minimize button it moves the window, and that's a huge target.  I'm using Gnome not KDE, but I'm surprised it's so different.

The titlebars are completely different in KDE and Gnome.

Not in Mediacenter as far as I can tell.  AFAIK JRiver handles its own window decorations and doesn't use GTK or QT.  Like, out of curiosity, I just tried it in KDE on Arch Linux, and JRiver looks and acts identical to how it does in Gnome?

Maybe you could post a screenshot of what you're seeing?

No screenshot needed. It doesn't respond to drags at all until I maximize it, then restore it.
And then it's a very small area that I can grab and drag at the beginning and end of the menu area.
This is using the default theme in MC.

Edit: at times I can grab other areas and move it. It appears that it's hit or miss and only after a maximize and restore.

I get this on one of my machines but only if I set it to autostart via kde, in this case the window is pinned to the top left and I can't move it at all but it works in all other ways. If I shut it down and open it manually, it then behaves normally. This machine is a workstation with an nvidia card, same setup on an optimus equipped laptop works fine (regardless of which GPU it uses).
