1. How do I disable functionality, that when I move a window close to the top (possibly close to any edge) of the screen KDE maximises it?

2. How do I switch to "standard" KDE mouse pointer (the one seen in most KDE screenshot), to be more specific where can I download that cursor theme (what is it's name)?

3. Is it possible to change the "glow" colour? The one "beneath" active window. Currently it's blue.

Couldn't find Oxygen theme download immediately but I will do it later. Now I know the name.

Actually it does. Drag your windows to the to the side of one screen (say left side), __when you mouse cursor hit the side__ (this is the key), there should be a new border showing how the window is going to be tiled. The idea is you can do this to a window to the left side, and another window to the right side to have a side by side windows of the the same size. (Look at video below on aroun 1:20) Now what I haven't figured out how is to make KWin tabs with different application windows on different tabs. Something with "Group windows together" as shown on the video on ~2:00

I wonder why that is.
