Description Michał D. (Emdek) 2012-01-29 12:01:52 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.8.0) 
OS:                Linux

In my session I have several windows opened (two instances of Kate and one of Dolphin on first virtual desktop and fullscreen instance of Okular on second one) and I always leave them all minimized (except Okular) when I close session.
Since KDE 4.8 minimize state of applications is not restored when session is resumed, all windows shows up and additionally Okular instance now always demands attention after start (in this case I'm "only" 99% sure that it wasn't doing that before update).
Other attributes, like size, location and fullscreen are restored correctly.
The same can be reproduced on default configuration.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open several windows;
2. minimize them all;
3. log out;
4. log in;

Actual Results:  
Minimize state is lost

Expected Results:  
Minimize state should be restored

I can reproduce the reported problem using the master branch

Comment 3 Michał D. (Emdek) 2012-01-29 17:33:05 UTC

It appears that state is saved correctly, only not restored.
I have no idea how it works, but in ksmserver sources I can't find "iconified", is that set by KWin?

high chance of being bug #290392

Please check if possible and deny or confirm duplicate status. Thanks and sorry.

Looks like at least partially possible (at least that attention demanding).
Will check when 4.8.1 will be available (KWin crashes for me on kde-build due to loading oxygen library from wrong prefix...).

OT:
----------
QT_PLUGIN_PATH=/opt/kde4/lib/kde4/plugins: kwin --replace

notice the trailing colon and also see the thread on k-c-d

Comment 7 Michał D. (Emdek) 2012-02-28 09:35:06 UTC

That didn't work for me (maybe something is messed up), but primitive method (temporary renaming and linking to proper plugins directory....) allowed me to check it and it appears to work fine (although tested only on dolphin instances but that shouldn't matter), both restoring state and no more attention demanding.
