Subject: 24.3.50; Maximize to the left/right side of the screen (on Windows 7
 & 8)
Date: Sat, 4 Jan 2014 19:58:19 +0100

Severity: minor

On my Windows 8 system, the "maximize to the left/right" feature of
the OS is not working quite well with Emacs (-Q).  See these
screenshots:

As you can see:

1. When Emacs is maximized to the left ("windows key" + "left arrow"),
there is some residual space at the left and top edges of the Emacs
frame.  There should be no such space.  Compare "emacs-left" (wrong)
with "chrome-left" (ok).

2. When Emacs is maximized to the right ("windows key" + "right
arrow"), there is some residual space at the top edge of the Emacs
frame.  Compare "emacs-right" (wrong) with "chrome-right" (ok).
