SUMMARY Terminal panel appears in every window as of Plasma 6 Beta 2. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open a new Dolphin window on Beta 2 2. Check if Terminal panel is open at the bottom OBSERVED RESULT Terminal panel is open, and there is nothing in Configure Dolphin to change this. EXPECTED RESULT Terminal panel being open by default should be an option that I can disable. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux: 6.6.7 KDE Plasma Version: 5.91.0-1 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.247.0 Qt Version: 6.7.0beta1 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I was not able to use "About This System" to get the above versions due to a QML error, so I had to check installed packages.
Update: I just realized it's every panel that comes back, not just the terminal panel.
Also applies to other apps with panels, such as Konsole. Every time I open Konsole, both the "SSH Manager" and "Quick Commands" plugins are enabled. Konsole also does not respect its default size as set in the profile. (80x25, instead defaults to 80x64) Regenerating "/home/(user)/.config/dolphinrc" fixes the issue. Haven't figured out which setting is the culprit yet, or if regenerating "konsolerc" fixes the Konsole issue. Pressed for time atm =) Arch Linux Kernel: 6.6.8 KDE Plasma Version: 5.91.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.247.0 Qt Version: 6.7.0beta2

Pressed for time atm =) How odd, deleting that file does allow Dolphin to remember what panels I last had open... even though I didn't see anything relevant to which panels were open. And now, my I wonder if regenerating that file makes Dolphin reset some values that are stored elsewhere?

Yeah, same here, not at first glance anyway. That's what I do when I have any kind of issue in KDE apps, just regenerate their config files. Then, if that fixes it, I try to remove config entries from the original file one by one until I find the culprit. Will give that a shot later today if nobody beats me to it. > And now, my I wonder if regenerating that file makes Dolphin > reset some values that are stored elsewhere? Does the issue remain if you put the original config file back in place? (If you kept it.) BTW, thank you for the link to the Konsole issue.
I found the culprit. In dolphinrc, the [General] section has a setting called "RememberOpenedTabs" If set to false, Dolphin opens every panel on every new window opened, and does not remember which ones you close. If set to true, or if the string does not exist, panels act like you would expect them to. In "Configure Dolphin" (CTRL+SHIFT+,) this setting is in "Interface" -> "Folders & Tabs" -> "Show on startup:" If that setting is set to a specific folder, any folder, the panel behaviour breaks. I have no idea why setting this to false interferes with the panels!

I can reproduce with Qt 6.7 beta but not 6.6.1 Looks like something with restoring the state of the QDockWidget is going wrong

Not sure which package update was responsible, but on arch (Qt 6.7.0, Linux 6.7.1, Plasma 5.92.0 and Frameworks 5.248.0), this seems to be fixed.

I will have to wait for Qt 6.7. Gentoo is still at Qt 6.6.1 and I'm trying to avoid -9999 (live build) packages unless I really have to.
