Description Peter Lunicks 2004-08-13 04:52:52 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.1)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

I noticed in previous versions of KDE (2 something?), when logging out of KDE, the "confirm logout" dialog used to have a checkbox to cause the current session to be saved and restored when next starting KDE. Since then (kde 3, as of 3.2.1 at least, but I don't see any indication of this feature up to 3.2.3), that feature is gone. Why?
 
I would like to be able to save my session sometimes, but not always, and not have to manually choose another option to save my session, besides the "logout" option. Why was the "save session" checkbox in the logout dialog feature removed? Was it simply overlooked when developing KDE 3? It's a useful feature and IMO should be added again. Also useful would be if the checkbox would remember its previous state. i.e. if I check the box one time when logging out, the next time I log out, the checkbox is by default checked. If I leave the box unchecked, the next time I log out, it is by default unchecked.
 
I would highly appreciate seeing this feature again in a soon-to-come version of KDE.
