Hi dan, Maybe you can help me. I tried fixing this by simply changing: window->show(); In main.cpp to: window->showMaximized();
But then every time it opens it is maximized by default. I did some more research and found that "if(app.isSessionRestored())" never passes as true, so win->restore() is never called. Shouldn't this return true if kdenlive was previously opened and restore the previous window state? I'm not an expert at this, just learning as I go along so I'm not sure. I assume When is this if() supposed to pass as true? Am I incorrect to assume that this is for restoring the window state after it's been opened before? This is the impression I got from the KMainWindow documentation. If not, then how do I manage that so it will open maximized the first time and then restore the prior state thereafter?
