I'm afraid you'll need to provide a bit more information than this. Please fill out the template so we can see exactly how you set things up, what versions of things you're using, etc.

By "not memorized, you mean they don't remember their sizes when closed and re-opened?

Moving to KWin | wayland-generic for now.

When I change the size of a window in Plasma-Wayland-Session,when I close it and reopened it again the window doesn't save the chosen size.It returns to its initial state before resizing.Try it yourself when using Plasma Wayland Session.
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2020-09-08 20:40:37 UTC
Thanks. I think this needs to be implemented at the compositor level on Wayland.
Comment 4 alenertz 2020-09-24 01:32:38 UTC
It seems now that the windows in plasma-wayland-session remember their size.Qt-apps,snaps,flatpaks,appimages seem to save the chosen window size.I've noticed that yesterday,when playing around for a time with the resizing of windows.Most Gtk apps also remember it,except certain Gtk applications like,for instance,brasero,which refuse to get resized.Is it possible that this problem has been fixed recently? I think that Kwin was updated a week ago,as I remember.Is all that right?
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2020-09-24 20:42:09 UTC
Indeed, support for this went in recently IIRC.
Comment 6 alenertz 2020-09-28 01:22:00 UTC
Think of brasero and perhaps some other Gtk Apps.They still refuse to get resized,despite the fixing of this bug recently.
Comment 7 Nate Graham 2020-09-28 17:25:25 UTC
They're GTK apps; that's up to them. We cannot do it for them. You'll need to contact their developers.
Comment 8 alenertz 2020-11-08 20:41:50 UTC
Since one of the last updates I saw that Brasero can now also be resized in Wayland-Session.So,this bug is at last really RESOLVED and FIXED.
