Installed from:    Compiled sources

Hi, 

i don't use window decorations and resize my windows with ALT+Button1 as defined in systemsettings in window actions tab of the window behaviour menu.
If i resize a window, so that it's size is zero some applications quit (e.g. eog). If the application doesn't quit, the desktop freezes (or gets very slow (not sure here)) and i have to switch to the console to kill the application manually. 

thanks.

What application do you have to kill ? Plasma or KWin?

Comment 2 Martin Flöser 2009-04-30 14:58:28 UTC

looks neither like a bug in plasma nor a bug in kwin. Looks like a bug in the various applications or the toolkit they use.

> What application do you have to kill ? Plasma or KWin?
Neither, i meant the offending application, in that case konsole.

Comment 4 Dario Andres 2009-05-01 01:04:25 UTC

Konsole from KDE4?
Can you reproduce this with any other application ?
Thanks
Moving to KDE as this is not a Plasma bug.

Hi,
some applications just quit (e.g. konqueror, eog, gimp, inkscape). Amarok starts using a lot of CPU, konsole instead uses a lot of RAM. jabref seems to handle it quite well, only the page shows the window to be huge. The same goes for xterm. 
At first i thought it's a feature to allow the closing of windows by reducing their size to zero.

I am not able to reproduce this here in KDE SC 4.3.90 as I am not able to reduce the size of any application to zero.
Is this still an issue for anyone?
