SUMMARY I think that most users only have a single scanning device. The application asks for a device selection at the start but then it is forgotten at the application termination. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. start skanlite and select a device 2. do a scan, save and terminate 3. start skanlite again OBSERVED RESULT A new selection device dialog is shown and no action is possible without selecting one. EXPECTED RESULT A setting to select the default one, a button to rescan and choose a new device. WORKAROUND Create a launcher in the menu with the -d option SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS KDE Plasma Version: 5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.80.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION n/a
A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/graphics/skanlite/-/merge_requests/18
I think it's not relevant. It adds the ability to select the device from inside the application, but I don't see any "save as default".
It automatically remembers the last used device and opens it upon next launch
Cool! Looking forward to test it!
