Version: unknown (using KDE 3.1.1 (CVS >= 20021124)) Installed from: compiled sources Compiler: gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.4.19 Usually, but not always, when I open a new maximized Konqueror window (my Web Browsing profile has a maximized window), the window will appear two pixels below the top of the screen. The maximize button shows that KWin thinks the window is maximized, but the window is just in the wrong position. None of the maximized windows in my saved session ever do this, it's just new windows that get opened, and the only new maximized windows I ever open are Konqueror. So whether this is specific to Konqueror's windows I'm not sure. In case it matters, I'm using the B II plugin.
This bug turned out to be a very weird interaction between KMainWindow and some smart KWin behavior. Konqueror's view profile uses KMainWindow::saveMainWindowSettings to save its window size. My window was maximized, but KMainWindow took no notice of that, saving only the dimensions of the window. Unfortunately, in my upgrade from KDE 3.0 to KDE 3.1, two more pixels came available to my desktop (probably from kicker reserving less space). So what was horizontally and vertically maximized in KDE 3.0 was only horizontally maximized in KDE 3.1! If KMainWindow would save whether the window is maximized or not, then weird problems like this would never happen. thanks,
