SUMMARY
i cant believe you dont know about this, if so juat ignore.
i downloaded kdenlive 18.08.2 appimage from your website.
the first time i run kdenlive appimage it has a dark background
and i cannot change the height of the timeline window, it just snaps back.
if i exit and run it a second time, it comes up with a white background and i can
resize the timeline height. if i remove the kdenlive-appimagerc file then
when i run it, it gives me the dark background again but no timeline resize.
i prefer the dark background with the ability to resize the timeline.

i downloaded kdenlive 18.04.1 appimage and it does not have the timeline
resize problem. however it changes to a white background on all runs after
the first.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. download appimage, run, resize timeline, exit, run, resize timeline
2. 
3.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
os is ubuntu 18.04.1 with the default gui.

settings -> themes -> breeze-dark will fix the problems
but i have to do it every time i run kdenlive, it does not remember.
this should be changed to minor in importance.

I confirm. I had the same problem with the new AppImage 18.08.3 yesterday.

It seems that this report is related to a old unmaintained version. A lot changed since then and it is likely that this has been fixed.

Feel free to reopen this bug or create a new report if this is still happening with the latest version (https://kdenlive.org/en/download/)
