Description julien.t43+kde 2013-02-21 21:53:50 UTC 
When browsing pictures and multiple times comparing different sets with Light Table, current settings (synchronized, pairing, full screen at least) are not kept between multiple calls.

Normally you want to keep same settings each time, as for any dialog box which should keep size.

My LT preferences:  synchronize panels automatically checked, nothing more

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. select a set of pictures, call light table, change settings, quit light table
2. select another set of pictures, call light table
3.
Actual Results:  
always, the full screen settings is not fully kept (icon says it is but still window bar).
pairing seems kept
synchronize is not always kept (it seems image is full screen/ctrl+alt+E or zoomed affect this)

It also seems to happen when a set contains more than 2 pictures and you change pictures to display

Expected Results:  
Keep settings consistent with last usage, whatever changing images in same set, another LT call or after restarting digikam
