Mac interface issue

I'm helping a neighbour figure some basic stuff out on his Macbook on a regularish basis (I have basically no mac experience, but far more with computers in general than he), and one issue whose solution has eluded me entirely thusfar - apparently, a while back, he accidentally enabled a feature that causes windows to go flying off to the edge of the screen if you move your mouse cursor at one of the screen corners quickly enough, which means I'm constantly having to go and click the edge of the window to recall it.

It's irritating us both highly, and I couldn't find anything on it via google.
Anyone know how to turn this off?

tl;dr
how do I make windows stop flying off to the edge of the screen on a mac whenever I move the cursor quickly towards a corner



None.

I may be misremembering, but I do believe that I saw such an option, and I can assume that I would certainly have disabled something called mouse gestures or similar if possible, as I have a strong aversion to gesture recognition controls.
I guess I'll look for that again next time I'm there, though.

Ultraviolet -- just sent you a message on Discord. I suspect you're probably trying to change unit speeds for units that don't use flingy.dat for movement (like any units that walk instead of hovering/flying). You can change their movement to flingy, but they unfortunately look more like they're gliding than walking when you do that.

Symmetry -- EE2, I've been using setdatfile successfully for units.dat and weapons.dat but the flingy changes don't seem to happen

Ultraviolet -- in EE2 you just open DatEdit, go to the flingy tab, and make whatever changes you want. Though if you want to do dynamic shit, you have to use the trigger editor with the setdatfile action. And of course you have to inject your changes when done. Can give more specific troubleshooting advice if you provide more details
