SUMMARY The Okteta main window starts too large on Wayland (I am unsure if this affects X11). Taking a screenshot, which includes the window shadows, it shows a height of 1,360 x 2,546. Even when resizing the window, on close the application is still too tall. The width is probably acceptable, though. I also tried removing the "[MainWindow]" section of the oktetarc file in "~/.config", but to no avail. I tried turning off some of my monitors, but even with one display, the issue persists with a clean oktetarc. I took a look at the Okteta source and couldn't find where the window sizing is defined. I would be willing to help tackle this issue if someone is able to point me in the right direction :-) STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Okteta on a Wayland session. 2. Observe window is too tall to fit comfortably on one display. OBSERVED RESULT Okteta is too tall to fit my display. EXPECTED RESULT Okteta would be some height that fits on most displays, or would not go any larger than the maximum available height of the current display it is on, SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: 6.7.1 Zen KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.10 (Wayland) KDE Frameworks Version: 5.114.0 Qt Version: 5.15.12 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION May be specific to Wayland.
Thanks for the report. This is sadly a long-standing issue, due to Qt's limited API to control QDockWidgets (used for the embedded tool views). There is some work-around (which I only recently updated), but that only seems to work on X11. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 462703 ***
Many apologies, it seems I did not search hard enough, I understand duplicates of long-standing issues can be frustrating and I did not do enough due diligence here. Okteta is an invaluable piece of software to me and this is not a huge issue, holding alt+dragging the window down to resize, or just using a keyboard shortcut to fullscreen the window is a very straightforward workaround. I will still gladly continue to use it, and perhaps one day will find another area to contribute to! :)

Thanks, all fine. And you gave details which I value in itself, deduplication was just some quick clicks for me :) My shame about not having fixed this in decades (I saw Krita meanwhile seems to have solved this, no longer using the hack) overweighs here 8( > Okteta is an invaluable piece of software to me Thanks for the kind words, nice to read once in a while that sharing the work improves things for others. > and this is not a huge issue, Darn, now you decreased the importance to fix it again :P Nah, as I might start to use Wayland myself more in the future, I should also have selfish reasons to tackle this soonish (hope dies last).
