            Bug ID: 514603
           Summary: Dolphin Application does not classify Dialogs as
                    "Dialog" window type
    Classification: Applications
           Product: dolphin
      Version First 25.12.1
       Reported In:
          Platform: Arch Linux
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: [email protected]

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Window rules (normal window type filter) apply on Dolphin Main Application
Window AND Dialogs.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create rule
2. Set "Normal Window" filter
3. Override a window property (initial position = maximized)
3. Open File Properties.

OBSERVED RESULT
File Properties Dialog is positioned maximized too

EXPECTED RESULT
File Properties Dialog is positioned default


ADDITIONAL UX INFORMATION
I expirience the same issue with other KDE Applications too. UX suffers
horribly by inconsistencies between Plasma <-> KWin <-> KDE Family

KDE has to consider taking care of these issues before the transition to
Wayland is completed!

Window rules are a central usability benefit for daily power users who have to
save time and sanity with data.

But as long as:
* Screen ids are random and do not correlate to Display Configuration
* Plasma/KWin cannot manage Window Tags for various instances of an application
(via *.desktop files)
* Window Type specifications are not consistently applied, at least for all KDE
Applications

KDE is drawn onto a questionable path by the progressive wing (probably the
paid wing?) of the community.
