Description BryanFRitt 2012-12-15 17:36:14 UTC
In KNotes Rich Text Edit Mode, KNotes Window Vertical Size Shrinking Issue On 'Hide All Notes'/'Show All Notes', etc...

To see this:
Right click on a KNote Title bar -> Preferences -> Editor -> Rich text check box
Compare the KNote size when it's the active editing window or not, when the note is in 'Rich text' mode, and when it is not. 

Currently when a KNote window is in 'Rich text' and is the active window, this KNote is taller than the other modes. ('Rich text' and not active(click on another window); non Rich text mode, in active or non active window mode.) The window shouldn't change size, instead the text area should decrease to fit in the added 'Rich text' controls without changing the window size. (except in the case where this makes the text box be smaller than zero(?or maybe one line instead?), then in this case the window should be enlarged/not allowed to shrink any further)

When the KNote is in 'Rich text' mode, every time a 'Hide All Notes'/'Show All Notes' the KNotes will shrink*, by the height of this additional 'Rich text' box(or at least close to it). Each time it will get smaller and smaller, until it reaches a minimum height, where it doesn't shrink anymore.

Summary:

1) The KNotes windows shouldn't change size just because they are being edited in 'Rich text' mode.
2) The KNotes windows shouldn't shrink when a 'Hide All Notes'/'Show All Notes' is done when a note is in 'Rich text' mode. (or any other mode for that matter)

*this happens for all but one 'Rich text' KNote. (not sure what's special about the KNote that isn't doing this, it's set to Rich text too)

Side Note: When Compiz is running the vertical shrinking on 'Hide All Notes'/'Show All Notes' doesn't occur, but it'll randomly mess up/forget the positions.
