Sorry for the delay. Would you mind sending logs and your configuration? Hold the option key and select "View Logging..." to see the log window, then reproduce it. You can export your configuration from the Gear tab of the settings window.

Hello,

I enabled logging and tried snapping windows.
I have also attached configuration json.
Thank you for the help.

I was having the same issue. I disabled the new windows snap option that MacOS introduced as a workaround for now.

[ipetrovbg]

I was having a similar issue as I used this command to offset the top edge

  defaults write com.knollsoft.Rectangle screenEdgeGapTop -int 26

This worked fine on my external monitor but cause the same problem you're describing on my MacBook because of the notch when the external monitor was disconnected. To fix the MacBook screen I used this command:

defaults write com.knollsoft.Rectangle screenEdgeGapTopNotch -int -26

As you can see I'm offsetting 26px back by using -26.

I hope this helps.
