Description kderocks38 2024-09-23 08:54:45 UTC
SUMMARY
sticky note plasmoid loses its configuration when dragged from taskbar to desktop

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add a sticky note to your taskbar 
2. Add a shortcut and change the font size in the sticky note & save 
3. drag the sticky note to your desktop
4°Disconnect your session & reconnect
5°Open the note configuration, its shortcut is no more present there

OBSERVED RESULT
Shortcut & note font are no more configured

EXPECTED RESULT
Shortcut & note font to keep their configuration

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu 23.10 kde 5.27.8
Qt Version: 5.15.10 wayland

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
-When trying to reattribute the "lost shortcut" to another note there is a notification that it is still in use(even though it is not present in its note configuration)

-By the way, does anyone know if there is a configuration file to change the note size once clicked to make them bigger?

Nice, thank you Nate.
May I ask if you know if there will be a feature to make the notes bigger as well or just if there is a configuration file that can be changed for this?

The panel popup is also resizable in Plasma 6.0. :)

Awesome, I have about 15 sticky notes all with keyboard shorts just for them, it's so powerful to be able to switch from one to another to organize your tasks.

Little efficient, convenient, tools like that make KDE glorious :) thanks a lot for your benevolent efforts.
