Description Bronson 2019-07-13 01:45:57 UTC
SUMMARY
Windows dont remember their size when I have a second monitor enabled. Rather annoying to have to resize windows every time I open a new app.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable second monitor (i have mine rotated 90 degrees)
2. Open dolphin, resize window, and close it
3. re open dolphin (or any other app)

OBSERVED RESULT
as above

EXPECTED RESULT
windows should work as they do with a single screen.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

It's the task of the applications to remember the size. Reassigning to dolphin as it's the used example.

Fyi, The same bug affects the konsole application also.

Dolphin, Kate and Konsole all remember their last size when on single monitor. When I add a second monitor each one loses their last size and instead open with their same default size. Kate and dolphin also won't follow the size set in window rules. They do follow the rules when using single monitor.

Bronson I've just tested this on dolphin from git master and when I close and reopen dolphin on any monitor it remembers it's size and position.

Can you please confirm that the issue is now resolved, thanks.

Phew, I was worried that the feature I wrote for this was broken again
