Bug ID: 409516
Summary: [Wayland] Windows never start maximized
Product: kwin
Version: 5.16.2
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: wayland-generic
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: s.scalabri...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When I open any program in the Xorg session (e.g., Kate), KWin remembers the
geometry of the window from the last time I used the same program and it
re-applies it to the current window. Specifically, if the window was maximized
in a previous working session, when I open the same program again the window is
maximized. This does not happen in Wayland. Instead, the window is close to
being maximized (same size of the screen), but it is not.
This is not nitpicking, it affects usability and I find it really annoying: I
usually move the mouse pointer straight to the upper-left corner of the screen
to close a window; however, if the window is not actually maximized, the close
button is not focused and I have to slightly move the mouse lower-right to
close the window.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Kate in a Wayland session
2. Maximize the window
3. Close Kate
4. Open Kate again
OBSERVED RESULT
The window is not maximized, i.e., if you open the context menu on the window's
title bar, "Maximise" is not checked.
EXPECTED RESULT
The window should be actually maximized, i.e., if you open the context menu on
the window's title bar, "Maximise" should be checked.
