Description Christophe Marin 2023-10-02 11:24:54 UTC
Using master builds.
reducing and restoring the akregator or kmail window using the tray icon doesn't work anymore.

akregator has less settings so reproducing is easier with it.

What works:
- deleting akregatorrc
- launching akregator
- in settings, disable tray icon / application / enable tray icon / apply
- the window can then be hidden/restored with the tray icon

but after quitting  / restarting akregator, the issue is back.

Same thing here on current neon -- but only with akregator. Works fine in kmail.
Maybe it's fixed there and that fix can be applied to akregator?

Same behavior with kmail/kontact using KDE Neon User edition.

This started happening to me since I upgraded to Plasma 6 and KDE Gear 24.02, and the workarounds mentioned in the initial comment work perfectly on my end. But then again, the issue returns the next time I relaunch Akegrator or when it autostarts at login.

Also, given the number of duplicates we have linked to this report so far, I think it's safe to say that this bug should be marked as confirmed.

If you still have this issue can you retry once your distro provides Qt 6.7.0.  Some related changes were pushed (https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-121398 for the details)
Comment 8 Philippe ROUBACH 2024-04-11 11:24:52 UTC
problem still there with qt 6.7
Comment 9 evil-god 2024-05-27 17:14:07 UTC

Problem fixed with akregator.

Problem still there with kmail icon. Clicking the icon does not display kontact.
