konversation forgets its window size after clicking on tray icon

[Miloš Mandarić]

Binary package hint: konversation

1. Open konversation
2. Change width or height
3. Click on it's tray icon twice

Works fine in Intrepid. What version of KDE/Kubuntu are you using?

[Miloš Mandarić (mandzo18)]

I am also running intrepid. it's 1.1 ver (KDE 3.5.10)

[Gustavo A. Díaz (gdiaz)]

Same problem guys, using KDE4.2rc1
Konversation never remembers window size using KWin
If you use Compiz/Emerald, is the only way to make it remember.

Does this issue still exist for you in konversation 1.2 alpha2?

[Miloš Mandarić (mandzo18)]

yes.

[Terence Simpson (tsimpson)]

I can not confirm this. When I change the window size, hide the window and show it again (via the system tray icon), the size is what I changed it to. Using KDE 4.2.4

[Miloš Mandarić (mandzo18)]

Well, I am using Kubuntu 9.04 and KDE is 4.2.2

[Jonathan Thomas (echidnaman)]

This generally happens with a clean config file. (e.g. fresh install) To fix this, change the width/height to what you want, quit Konversation, (not just close the window) and restart. Now Konversation should remember your window settings. This is a kdelibs issue, however.

[Miloš Mandarić (mandzo18)]

Sorry guys, I don't have Kubuntu anymore on my laptop. Can't test this issue. Jonathan if think it's fixed you have my permission to mark this as invalid.

[Jonathan Thomas (echidnaman)]

Oh, it's still a problem. (See comment 8)

[Miloš Mandarić (mandzo18)]

Ouh, ok then.

[Jonathan Thomas (echidnaman)]

Hi there!

Thanks for reporting this bug! Your bug seems to be a problem with the KDE program itself, and not with our KDE packages. But don't worry! This issue is being tracked by the KDE developers at: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=157293
Once fixed in KDE, it will be included in Kubuntu once the KDE version the fix is in in reaches Kubuntu.

Thanks!
