Disabling Ubuntu Tile Groups via gsettings
In Ubuntu 25.10, clicking window B (to focus it) can unexpectedly raise a sibling window A above an overlapping window C. This happens because A and B are in the same Tile Group — a spatial grouping the Ubuntu Tiling Assistant forms when windows are snapped/tiled edge-to-edge. The extension's "Raise together" rule raises the entire tile group whenever any member is raised, so raising B drags A upward too. The fix is to disable that group-raise behavior while keeping tiling itself intact:
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.tiling-assistant enable-raise-tile-group false
To verify it took, run gsettings get org.gnome.shell.extensions.tiling-assistant enable-raise-tile-group — it should print false.
