Bug ID: 478698 Summary: As was happening about 6 months back the active session is being erased on every run of the app. Classification: Applications Product: kate Version: 23.08.4 Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: major Priority: NOR Component: sessions Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: craigday...@att.net Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY *** NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Configure to open last session on startup. 2. Open several files in Kate 3. Save the session 4. Close Kate 5. Open Kate back up. OBSERVED RESULT You should be seeing things just as they were when you closed it, but instead the window is sized to a minimum and all files have been cleared from the session. The only workaround I have found is to create duplicates of the session and next time I open Kate, delete the now emptied session and select one of the duplicates. Suggestion, as this has happened before: Add testing of session preservation to the testing. It strikes me that this is really something once written should never need to be changed, yet it has. EXPECTED RESULT SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: Linux 6.6.7-arch1-1 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
