Hi there.

I just updated my KDE install from 4.1.85 to 4.1.86 from the opensuse unstable repo'.

I now seem to have a problem with the folderview widget losing it's geometry settings
whenever plasma is restarted.

Before restarting (as I've positioned it)


And after restarting plasma.


The issue seems the same using the kubuntu kde-neon packages too.

All the other widgets I've tried seem unaffected.

It doesn't matter if I restart KDE itself or just issue the kquitapp plasma command.

I just wondered if anyone else has seen this behavior and if there was a workaround to
make the sizes stick.

Cheers.

I'm seeing the same issue, I think you should report it as bug on http://bugs.kde.org and attach the two screenshots.

@OP
Please do post a link here to the bug report. Thanks.

Thank you for checking.
Am filing the bug now.

this was already fixed in trunk.

Brilliant news!

I'll update the bug report.

Thank you.

I have just updated to the 4.1.87 packages and the problem is gone.

Thanks everyone :shade:

I have the 4.1.96 packages from kde42.debian.net and I see this issue still.
I resize to have the folder view along the left side of my desktop but every logout and login resets it.

@Cader:
What does

Code: Select all

kquitapp plasma && plasma &

show?

Doing the kquitapp kept it in place. Even with a logout.
So a normal logout is not saving the config right?

Now the only goofy thing is the scroll bar shows up on it until I click anywhere on the folderview plasmoid. But I can live with that (for now...) =).

Do you still want the output of plasma?

I'm not one of those cool Plasma hackers, so the output wouldn't tell me much.

So now we know that the size is saved when Plasma quits nicely. But something goes wrong at logout - maybe Plasma crashes.

Can you check if you can reproduce with a clean plasma-appletsrc config? (move/rename ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-appletsrc (might be .kde instead of .kde4))

I tried this with a clean .kde4 and still wouldn't save on logout.

Hi,

could you please be so kind to remove [solved]?

In my KDE v4.2.0 it is not corrected, folders are mixed up on relogin again..
And "kquitapp plasma && plasma &" works, without changing size or position

Kind regards, Florian
