Please paste the output you get when you open dolphin through the terminal (when the issue occurs)

I am not able to reproduce it yet, but does this look right?

$ dolphin 
Qt: Session management error: networkIdsList argument is NULL

Hello the issue has occurred again, running dolphin from the terminal shows the following output

$ dolphin 
Qt: Session management error: networkIdsList argument is NULL

Moving dolphin and then closing it, when dolphin is opened again it fails to remember last window position.
Also moving to 2nd monitor, close and reopens in the main monitor.


Tested with version 22.08.1

Hi Rajinder,

Plasma 5.27 just landed with a huge multi-monitor overhaul (https://kde.org/et/announcements/plasma/5/5.27.0/).
I've noticed that this also affects Dolphin's remembering of its last position and size.

Does the update fix this issue for you? A lot of multi-monitor issues were addressed with this overhaul.
Hoping for better results now! :)

That's awesome, I am on this version with OpenSUSE TW KDE :-D
It looks like it's working, however I also got setting to open a new Window under the mouse cursor.
I did change it to "center" and "top left" to quickly tested and this time dolphin was showing up correctly, in the right monitor.
Great work!

I'm marking this bug as resolved for now.
Feel free to reopen or create a new report, should this issue ever occur again!

This bug is definitely not resolved -- as of just yesterday, it started happening on a system running 5.27.9 with all updates.

Does not matter if dolphin is launched from the UI or CLI, it now always opens with the top third or so of the window off the top of the screen, rendering it useless.  I get the same CLI output as previously mentioned:

user@host:~$ dolphin
Qt: Session management error: networkIdsList argument is NULL

In my case, the steps to reproduce are even simpler:

1) open dolphin

That's it.  It now always opens partially-off-screen.  What, precisely, caused this behavior to start yesterday, is unknown to me.

Does this happen with any other applications? I am trying to track down if this is Dolphin specific, or something else.
