Bug Description

Here is how you can reproduce the issue :

     1. Open any resizable window (e.g. PCManFM)
     2. Press SUPER+Left or Right Arrow

Make sure "Reserve space, and not covered by maximized windows" (in the Advanced tab of the Panel Preferences) is enabled.

As you can see, there is an empty gap underneath the snapped window, of the same height as the panel. It is not related with the panel being minimized or not.

The misalignement is experienced with full-height half-width windows, but not with full-width half-height windows (SUPER+Up or Down Arrow)

This effects me as well although there seems to be a way to do this in ~/.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml that has the current size for this snapping is not enabled as it is for 97 percent tall and 50 percent wide.

I can confirm that this workaround works for me.

I changed this :

    <!-- Keybindings for window tiling -->
    <keybind key="W-Left"> # HalfLeftScreen
      <action name="UnmaximizeFull"/>
      <action name="MoveResizeTo"><x>0</x><y>0</y><height>97%</height><width>50%</width></action>
    </keybind>
    <keybind key="W-Right"> # HalfRightScreen
      <action name="UnmaximizeFull"/>
      <action name="MoveResizeTo"><x>-0</x><y>0</y><height>97%</height><width>50%</width></action>
    </keybind>

... to this :

    <!-- Keybindings for window tiling -->
    <keybind key="W-Left"> # HalfLeftScreen
      <action name="UnmaximizeFull"/>
      <action name="MoveResizeTo"><x>0</x><y>0</y><height>100%</height><width>50%</width></action>
    </keybind>
    <keybind key="W-Right"> # HalfRightScreen
      <action name="UnmaximizeFull"/>
      <action name="MoveResizeTo"><x>-0</x><y>0</y><height>100%</height><width>50%</width></action>
    </keybind>

However, 100% should be the default value for these keybindings.

Thank you, Maliktunga! Editing ~/.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml and rebooting worked for me. It had been driving me crazy.
