yakuake does not remember if it was in fullscreen mode previously. This can be fixed with KWin-script but Martin said it's a bug in yakuake ;) . Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go into fullscreen mode (e.g. F11). 2. Hide yakuake (e.g. F12). 3. Show yakuake (e.g. F12). Actual Results: yakuake shows up normally (e.g. half the screen size). Expected Results: yakuake should show up fullscreen.
This is intentional behavior right now based on the notion that fullscreen is only something people want to use temporary and it saves time to exit fullscreen and hide the window at the same time. It might need an option for people who really want to decouple the two.
Yes, this affects me too. Will help a lot if this feature is implemented (can get rid of guake and a keybinding)
