Description John Veness 2023-04-29 14:52:32 UTC
SUMMARY
The current Konsole zoom level should be remembered between sessions.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run Konsole
2. Change the "zoom" level (actually I think this changes the font size) a few steps by using ctrl+- or ctrl+=
3. Quit Konsole
4. Run Konsole again

OBSERVED RESULT
The previous zoom level (font size) is still in place.

EXPECTED RESULT
The default zoom level (font size) is back in place.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Remembering the zoom level is, I think, an expected behaviour, just as windows remember their size and position (or maximise state). For example, Dolphin, Firefox, VS Code/Codium, behave like this.

It is possible to change the font size in Konsole to a different number to change the default, but this requires cloning the default profile and changing the setting in there, which is quite a lot of steps and not very discoverable. Plus, this isn't entirely a workaround, as it only changes the default, doesn't fix the "remember the previous setting" issue.
