This is Maximus GNOME Shell extension ported to Cinnamon.

I only changed the metadata.json file, extension works in Cinnamon without any changes.

All credits go to its original author. (See website: https://bitbucket.org/mathematicalcoffee/maximus-gnome-shell-extension/overview)

 

This extension hides a window's titlebar when maximized, could be great on small screens with Cinnamon Window buttons extension and a top panel.

Screenshot shows it in action, you can see GEdit with German localization and no titlebar.

    What's the difference between this and getting Maximus from the repos? I have the repo Maximus and it works fine.

  8. economicist says:

    Looks like a great idea. But can anyone tell me how to install it? Where do I put the zip file or its contents? I'm totally stumped on this one.

    Something in a recent update broke this for me. I'm using the Romeo repository, so I suspect it's something related to cinnamon 1.6. Any ideas?

    Don't work in cinnamon 1.6

  11. kyla says:

    This worked for me (posted by dmo60 in a comment on another extension): "Run 'cinnamon --version' and check if your version is included in the metadata.json file." I just added my version and now maximus works again.

    Thanks kyla :D

    great extension! But it does not fully work with Kile on my LM14 64bit. Cinnamon 1.6.7 freezes after I resize Kile back and forth. Solved adding 'Kile' to the WMLIST following https://bitbucket.org/mathematicalcoffee/maximus-gnome-shell-extension/overview.

    Awesome extension, thank you!

    For use in Cinnamon 1.6.7 or newer versions, edit metadata.json "cinnamon-version": [ "1.4", "1.5", "1.5.1", "1.5.2" , "1.6.7" ],

    Is it possible this Applet could be updated for Mint 14 "Nadia" with Cinnamon 1.6.7? There is no extensions folder anymore and dropping it into applets and renaming the file results in missing "main" errors. Thanks!
