Description Raul Moratalla 2008-07-01 19:33:16 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.0.83)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

Hi, 

Currently if I open Konsole and maximize it if I close it and run konsole again doesn't remember the window size, the window isn't opened maximized. In KDE3 works fine.
Comment 1 Robert Knight 2008-07-13 02:20:38 UTC
Works correctly for me.  Steps tested:

1.  Run "konsole" from a terminal
2.  Maximize window
3.  Close window
4.  Start "konsole" from terminal again - size is preserved

Alternatively

1.  Click File -> New Window from existing terminal
2.  Maximize new window
3.  Close window
4.  Open new window via File -> New Window - size is preserved
Comment 2 Raul Moratalla 2008-07-13 20:34:22 UTC
I found the problem. In openSUSE the font used by default is Monospace, size 8. If I use this font in konsole size is preserved but if I change it to Monospace, size 12, the size of the window of konsole is not preserved.

Please, test it, thanks.

> In openSUSE the font used by default is Monospace, size 8

Is this the font size used by menus and dialogs in Konsole or the font size for terminal text?

Monospace is not actually a real font.  Can you run:

fc-match Monospace

In a terminal to get the real name of the font and post the result?
Comment 4 Raul Moratalla 2008-07-13 22:36:34 UTC
This is the output of fc-match Monospace:

andalemo.ttf: "Andale Mono" "Normal"

This is the font used for terminal text.

Present in 4.1.0.

when i use Dejavu Sans Mono Size 10, and maximize the konsole window, close it;
next time it seems not remender i maximized it, and show up a small window

Archlinux, KDE4.1.1 Konsole Version2.1

Hi,

I have a suspicion that Andale Mono is not actually a monospace font which might explain the strange behavior.  Does it show up in Konsole's font selector dialog? (Settings -> Edit Current Profile -> Appearance -> Edit Font)
 
Comment 8 Raul Moratalla 2008-09-22 20:38:36 UTC
Yes, Andale Mono shows up in Konsole's font selector.
Comment 9 Kurt Hindenburg 2011-03-06 01:06:20 UTC
Do you still have this issue on a recent KDE version?  4.5.x or 4.6.
