4: After taking the snapshot, Ksnapshot window is back in the middle of the screen.


Actual Results:  
After taking the snapshot, Ksnapshot window is back in the middle of the screen.

Ksnapshot should stay at the user defined location.

Cannot reproduce on today's trunk. Which KDE version are you using? Which window manager? If KWin, are there any special window rules? If unsure, try to create a new user account, and test after login using that account.
Comment 2 Thomas Damgaard 2011-06-24 09:31:10 UTC
I just tried with a new user account, default settings. It appears that I cannot reproduce it with the new account. 


However, I do not think I have any settings that should be causing this...


Version info:
KSnapshot
Version 0.8.2
Using KDE Development Platform 4.6.2 (4.6.2)

I think the previous error was the wrong paste. 
kquitapp plasma-desktop gives THIS error:
Qt: Session management error: Could not open network socket
kstart(8344) main: Omitting both --window and --windowclass arguments is not recommended

Thomas, wrong bug number?
Comment 5 Thomas Damgaard 2011-11-23 20:36:24 UTC
Oh yeah. Wrong bug ID. Sorry.
Comment 6 Christoph Feck 2011-12-21 16:02:26 UTC
Did this bug occur ever since then? If yes, please reopen or add a comment.

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years and I will be closing this bug. Spectacle is the replacement for ksnapshot now. Please test again and file a new bug for Spectacle if you still have issues. Thank you!
