Comment 4 Fabio 2025-11-05 22:22:03 UTC
Hi, sorry for the delay.
Bookmark support in krdc is based on an implementation meant to be used mainly with web browsers or similar applications.
So, the "add boomark" menu entry was meant to bookmark the current "page" (aka connection) shown in the app.
As you noticed this is quite unexpected and hard to understand, so by now we just removed the "add bookmark" entry from the menubar and the tray icon menu. Connections can still be bookmarked by clicking on the "bookmark" icon in the table (first column in the table).
We plan on reworking the whole connections management, so this may be reconsidered in the (hopefully not so distant) future.
