Sorry, I don't understand. What other "case" is there for a terminal emulator? Hmm, perhaps you meant "role"? I see that the session command line has "--role=Terminal-0x..." and that "man xfce4-terminal" has --role=role Sets the window role of the last-specified window to role. Applies to only one window and can be specified once for each window you create from the command line. It is mostly used for session management inside Terminal The man page fails to illiterate the available "roles" and fails to explain the meaning of "role=Terminal...". A quick look at google fails to provide any further insight. What is "role=Terminal..."? Also, "man xfce4-terminal" has Window or Tab Separators --tab --window Open a new window containing one tab; more than one of these options can be provided. and Window Options --maximize Set the last-specified window into maximized mode; applies to only one window; can be specified once for each window you create from the command line. So, when xfce4-terminal is started from the command line, why does the command line argument "--window --maximize --window --maximize ..." become irrelevant in "terminal case"? Trying it, it seems to work as expected, so, I'm not understanding. > Here, the maximized status is correctly restored (either by > xfwm4 or xfme4-session) so I guess it might be a kde issue. "ps waxl" says that the xfce4-terminal process being is started by kdeinit4, and the xfce4-terminal command line which is generated is rather complex, describing very explicitly the previous state of the xfce4-terminal session, seemingly including everything _except_ "--maximize". I did try cutting and pasting the xfce4-terminal command line from "ps", leaving out what appears to be a session ID number extension following "Terminal" in "--role=Terminal", and it works perfectly. And, playing around with different numbers of windows and tabs on the command line, with and without "--maximize", "--maximize" seems to do exactly what would be expected, noting the importance of distinguishing "--geometry=<some large size>" from "--maximize". So, it seems rather obvious that the problem is a missing "--maximize" somewhere in the regenerated session command line. Did you mean to suggest, when saying that xfwm4 or xfme4-session correctly restores the maximized status, that there is an explicit "--maximize" option on the command line? And that the resulting window is actually "maximized", noting the window-decoration maximize-button state, and is not just a "large" geometry window? And then, which process generates this session command line, xfce4-terminal or kde4? Can you confirm that kde4 is responsible for generating the xfce4-terminal command line, and then presumably failing to check for "maximize" state? BTW, can you say anything about the window size when maximized? Is the window suppose to fill the entire area available? Or only up to some multiple of character sizes, with empty space around the outside? Thanks James -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-qt-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
