wmctrl doesn't move window when snapped or tiled

I'm using Mint 18.1 cinnamon. I'm trying to write a little bash program to move windows around. I have a command that will remove maximized_vert and maximized_horz then move the window. It works fine if the the target window is maximized or just floating, but if the window is snapped into place using super [arrow] ( think this is tiling? ) it has no affect. The code is as follows wmctrl -r "$CHROME" -i -b remove,maximized_vert wmctrl -r "$CHROME" -i -b remove,maximized_horz wmctrl -r "$CHROME" -i -e '0,0,0,500,500' Where "$CHROME" is the hex address or the window. I repeat it works if the window is maxamized or if it is just floating but does not work when the window is tiled or snapped using super [arrow] Thanks for the help
