Description Andreas Pietzowski 2010-05-07 22:01:26 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.4.3)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I have two folder views with Desktop and Downloads. I scaled them and I moved them to fit my needs. Every time I restart plasma (because of a crash or reboot) those widgets have the default size and are placed on (random and new) position. I only recognize this behavior on one of my Twinviews.

"I only recognize this behavior on one of my Twinviews."

which one? and does this imply that on the other screen it works perfectly?
Comment 2 Andreas Pietzowski 2010-05-08 13:20:21 UTC
I was wrong. On bith screeens the folder view doesn't remember the size and position of the widget. Can't you reproduce?
Comment 3 Aaron J. Seigo 2010-05-08 23:53:28 UTC
"Can't you reproduce?"

no, i can't. otherwise i might try and fix it :)
Comment 4 Andreas Pietzowski 2010-05-09 01:03:23 UTC
What can I do to help out? Those folder widgets are always placed at different positions here, I swear ;-)

Sounds weird, but since i totally removed every akonadi-configuration it works again. The folder views stay in their position. I reported my akonadi-bug in this bug report last week: 237222 (the only solution was to start with a fresh akonadi config.

Do folderview and akonadi have any relation ship?
Comment 7 Todd 2010-10-14 04:09:23 UTC
I'm seeing this too.
Comment 8 Wonko 2010-11-13 22:21:27 UTC
Me too, since KDE 4.2. When I reposition a folder view plasmoid and log out and in again, it usually has the same position as before I moved it. When I do this often enough, the position is eventually being remembered.
This still happens with 4.5.3 (Gentoo Linux).

I would very much like this to be fixed. Tell me if I can do anything to help track this down.
