Description rrx 2022-01-27 08:23:56 UTC
SUMMARY
Kate doesn't save Word Warp, Borders, Code Folding, Zoom or Color Theme settings if changed via View drop down on v 21.12.1-1 or 22.03.70

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to View - Borders (or Word Warp, Code Folding, Zoom or Color Theme)
2. Change any of the four settings available
3. Restart Kate

OBSERVED RESULT
Word Warp, Borders, Code Folding, Zoom or Color Theme settings are not being saved if they are changed through the View drop down, although some of them can be saved if changed through Settings - Configure Kate. Oddly enough, other interface settings such as in View - Tool Views or the ones under Settings actually are being saved.
