Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin

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.
