What is the difference between tiling and snapping windows on Linux Mint cinnamon
I am using Linux Mint 19.1.
When I enter window tiling settings it is described as...
Enable Window Tiling and Snapping
In addition is has the settings....
Show snap on-screen display
Show tile heads-up-display
As well, when I hover the window near the edge is says...
Hold ctrl to enter snap mode
But I can not for the life of me figure out what is different between these two concepts. Holding ctrl to enter snap mode just turns the tiling boxes green.
Then only behaviour I see is windows being tiled to full, half and quarter sizes.
