Version: (using KDE 4.3.2) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages I checked off the "Remember Desktop" box in Knotes. However, when I enter a new note, it still seems to stick it on the one desktop that it was entered on originally. For example, if I am on desktop 1, and add a note, then right click on KNotes, click "Hide all notes", switch to desktop 2, right click on KNotes and click "Show all notes", the note I just added does not show. If I switch back to desktop 1 I can see it opened there. I expected all notes to open on my current desktop, desktop 2. Another example: if I close the note, switch to desktop 2, left click on the KNotes icon, and select the note I just added, the system switches to desktop 1 automatically, where the note is open (I would expect it to open on the current desktop, desktop 2, instead). I checked the note's file itself (libcal-nnnnn under .kde4/share/apps/knotes/notes) and it has this data: [Display] RememberDesktop=false bgcolor=255,255,189 [General] version=3.9 [WindowDisplay] desktop=1 position=54,271 My system's version data is below.

Created attachment 77023 [details] Alows proper working of "Remember Desktop" option in knotes (v4.8.5) Hi. Because I experience similar broken behaviour as describer in this Bug, I have prepared fix which might be considered as solution for this issue. Since I'm using Mageia 2 this patch is prepared for version 4.8.5 of PIM, however might work on newer releases.
Thank you for the patch. Please submit it to http://reviewboard.kde.org. You will need an account on http://identity.kde.org for that. Also please have a look at the commit rules for KDE: http://techbase.kde.org/Policies/SVN_Commit_Policy (that applies to Git as well)
The patch looks fine. I will commit it for KDE 4.10.1 and above. Thanks!
