Description Mayeul C. 2022-07-19 14:49:34 UTC

SUMMARY

I played around with undocking the color picker some time ago, under sway/wayland.
I closed it, but I cannot toggle it back on, there is no menu option.

Configuration⇾Toolbars should include the color picker.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Under sway, unlock the toolbars
2. Drag one of them, it becomes a pop-up window that you can drag around (by pressing meta, as the drag area doesn't work) and with no borders, but that you cannot reattach.
3. Close the toolbox window with the sway shortcut.
4. You cannot re-enable the color toolbox, though you can for most others.

It should probably work under plasma/wayland or plasma as well.

OBSERVED RESULT

Once closed, the color picker toolbox cannot be opened again.

Toolboxes cannot be docked again, at least under sway.

EXPECTED RESULT

At least put a toggle to make the toolbox appear again.
Maybe also add a button to reset the default toolbox positions and assortment.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Sway, Arch Linux x86_64
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.96.0-1
Qt Version:  5.15.5

As a workaround, when kolourpaint is not running, edit ~/.config/kolourpaintrc and remove the line
starting with
State=
in the section [MainWindow]

Avoid closing the color toolbar also via (e.g. Alt-F4) shortcut
