Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.2) Installed from: Compiled From Sources Compiler: gcc (GCC) 3.4.5 (Gentoo 3.4.5-r1, ssp-3.4.5-1.0, pie-8.7.9) OS: Linux Note shapes/sizes and positioning info should save without waiting for the user to log out. I suggest doing so when they lose focus, the same way you do for their contents. Usually, I only log out by power outage, and having to re-position my notes every time I log in (thank goodness that you at least save their contents automatically) is a big pain.
> Usually, I only log out by power outage, Well, this is certainly not the recommended way and I'm surprised the notes' positions is the only information lost that way. > and having to re-position my notes > every time I log in (thank goodness that you at least save their contents > automatically) is a big pain. Yes, there were too many content losses, so I needed something absolutely reliable. However, I did not want to save the position because that would slow down switching windows even more as this information is written to a different file. I'll keep this report open and see what others think. You may quit KNotes before pulling your plug as a workround for the time being.
I really should clarify my definition of "log out by power outage." I never pull the plug. The weather does it for me. If I could afford a UPS, my uptime (and probably time since last login) would be close to 6 months by now.
Will have to work on solving this.
This report is about a completely outdated version of knotes, please feel free to reopen the report if you can reproduce this with KDE 4.9.0 or later.
