Description Juraj 2024-11-13 19:49:59 UTC

SUMMARY
After a while of running KDevelop and developing, the panels in the bottom dock are unable to be stretched over the minimal height.
At times the bottom dock (with the list of docked panels) is pushed offscreen, happens when panel is open.
Clicking on the text editor and doing some stuff may force the window to fit the screen again, with bottom dock unchanged (still forced minimal height of panels, but it is no longer offscreen).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Sadly, I am not sure. Happens during normal use within a "short" period of time.

OBSERVED RESULT
Unable to increase the height of the panels in the bottom dock.

EXPECTED RESULT
Being able to adjust the height of the panels in the bottom dock even after some time.

Window Manager: i3

Linux/KDE Plasma:

Steps to reproduce (bit uncertain)
1. Enable search inside open document (press Ctrl+F)
2. Insert some term which is on page few times
3. Search multiple times on the page, probably best to reach end and beginning of the document a few times

EXPECTED RESULT:
Just normal search and nothing else

OBSERVED RESULT?
The search works fine, but the minimal height is set to some high value and pushes the rest of GUI down.

Cannot reproduce. Have you tried renaming your ~/.config/kdevelop.rc, ~/.local/state/kdevelopstaterc, ~/.local/share/kdev* ? Perhaps some old KF5/Qt5 config causes the bug.

I tried to reproduce in KDE Neon VM and was unable to.

Thank you for the list, I did not know which files are relevant.
I renamed it and the problem seems to be solved, I hope permanently (till Qt7?).

Thank you very much.
