Hi Dr. Chapatin, Sorry for my late response, I am doing my work assignment about L4 recently http://os.inf.tu-dresden.de/pipermail/l4-hackers/2017/ so I have no time for k3b, sorry! For wayland, you mean plasma wayland session or weston? could you attach some screenshot for me? shortcut for weston http://www.chaosreigns.com/wayland/weston/ Regards, Leslie Zhai Created attachment 105954 [details]

Hi Leslie
I meant plasma wayland session.
Here is the screenshot.
Hi Dr. Chapatin,
Thanks for your plasma wayland session test :)

I will try to find the root cause in Thursday this week!

Hi Martin, > Thanks for your plasma wayland session test :) > > > I meant plasma wayland session. > > Here is the screenshot. > > I will try to find the root cause in Thursday this week! k3b -platform wayland is able to work correctly under weston https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DBrzSqxU0AAz2ID.jpg it is able to position KXmlGuiWindow in the center of screen https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DBrzT-gVwAAXeUg.jpg But I am not familiar with kwin_wayland, even I played with wayland https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2015-April/021245.html and weston https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2015-April/021199.html several years ago, I am still a newbie in some fields :) so Martin please help me to find out the root cause, thanks a lot! Regards, Leslie Zhai That it works on Weston is pure chance. The window placing algorithm is just not good enough there. On Wayland it is not possible for applications to position themselves. Hints like splash screen also do not exist. Currently there is no solution for these problems. Splash screen appears on top left side here. The same happens with qbittorrent splash screen.

I am not familiar with set_position https://cgit.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland/tree/protocol/wayland.xml#n2649 PS: why you changed your family name? Regards, Leslie Zhai Currently the window size is remembered when the window is closed while unmaximized. If the window is closed while maximized, the window occupies the whole screen the next time the K3b starts but the button in the window decoration indicates that the window is not maximized. Position is still not remembered. Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.0 Qt Version: 5.11.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.51.0 Kernel Version: 4.18.12-arch1-1-ARCH Currently the window size is remembered. The window position will be remembered when bug 15329 is fixed. Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.95.0 Qt Version: 5.15.4 Graphics Platform: Wayland |
