2023 is on the street, and it is impossible to switch between the windows of

Or, to take my thought in the previous comment (72) a little further: perhaps
there could be a preference "remember window size and position" that made kwin
automatically save a "window rule" when an app is closed.
And in this "window rule" size and position were to be saved.
That way the user wouldn't have to bother about the shortcut Shift-close.

I would very much love it when the window placement policy of Plasma got a
little less jumpy. But if that is very hard to achieve (also under Wayland) I
would like to make a suggestion:
only very recent I discovered that once you close an application in ms windows
(10) using the window control "x" while at the same time pressing the
Shift-key, it will from then on remember the size and position of that specific
window.
I find that quite practical. That could be a temporary solution.

Seems that KDE apps ported to Windows are affected by a corruption of the
config file ( a lot of "\" characters on the configuration file) and this is
placing the main app window on a strange position (with a strange size)

this is an example of a line: 

from this: 
Height 1080=900

to this:
.\\DISPLAY1 .\\DISPLAY2 Height 1080=900

This is in progress on Wayland! See

On X11, I just merged a limited version for only KDE apps' main windows, which
is the best we can do there. See bug 415150.

On my PC even Dolphin, not to mention Discover and Elisa do not remember the
last size and placement. But they do on my laptop somehow, despite the configs
being IDENTICAL

For sure. Similar,y, some KDE applications already support this individually,
such as Discover and Elisa.

X11 limitations don't come into play when the app itself does it.

Indeed, that's exactly what Bug 415150 is tracking: having our app framework
provide the feature automatically for all KDE apps, in the absence of the
window manager doing it automatically.

Of course time is limited, and here I am responding to comments in a bug report

That's what's being discussed by various developers in the comment thread of
this bug report. :) There are a variety of technical challenges to making work
on both X11 and Wayland. On X11, the challenges relate to various mismatches
between what X11 provides the window manager and what the window manager needs.
On Wayland, it're more about needed functionality not having been merged into a
protocol yet.

Again, if it were easy, it would already be done. :)

I wanted to point out three things in my comment, but apparently managed to mix
them up.

1. Yes, what I described is the lack of the feature in the Gnome / Cinnamon
ecosystem as a whole. However, at least some applications (and key applications
like Terminal, Synaptic, etc.) do it, which makes it a much more acceptable
experience than in KDE (speaking from memory here, but the issue is still open,
so...)
2. The fact that some applications do it means it is possible, and was possible
even with X11.
3. While this issue was opened against KWin, we users don't care where the
solution will land. If it can only be done on the toolkit level (which is
probably better than forcing each app/developer to implement it separately), so
be it.

In fact, what you describe is the *lack* of this feature: if the window manager
handled remembering window sizes and positions, then no window would ever fail
to remember its size or position. But because the window manager does not, it's
up to each app (or each toolkit that apps are built with) to implement the
feature on its own, which is why it works for some apps but not others.

We all want this feature, it's about figuring out how to do it. If it was easy,
it would have been done ages ago.

Christoph: that's a fallacy; you don't have to be a cook to recognize badly
prepared food.

This issue has been open for 20 years; I added myself to the CC list 10 years
ago, when I was still using KDE. So even if it is a difficult problem, KDE has
had all the time in the world to fix it.

Incidentally, on Linux Mint 18.3 Cinnamon, some apps remember their size, some
remember their position as well, while others open in the middle of the screen
in a default size. It was probably the same for Gnome back in 2009 before I
switched to KDE. It's nowhere near optimal, but it shows that the information
is  (was) there.

You might be right in saying that this is not a KWin issue, but should be
handled in KDE core or wherever. Rest assured, that's completely fine with us,
as long as this feature gets implemented somewhere. People using KDE probably
mostly use K* apps anyway (with the exception of browsers and Libre Office,
which remember their positions).

Here we are, 20 years after the reporting of this bug/feature request/wish
(which wasn't even the first report), and not that much happened. Monitors
bacame 5-10x bigger in pixel count and windows popping up in unexpected places
are progressively harder to find, but hey?

I now could at length post one or antother episode from my life that happened
during those 20 years, but - to sum it up - time progressed for me, I can't
really afford to wait another 20 years to get this sorted out (via kwin, X11 or
wayland), so, folks, lets be realistic, let's just close this bug 15329,
collectively forget about it - it's not gonna happen, nobody capable of coding
really cares about it enough - and just happily move on.

If we're really passionate about it, we could come back in 20 years, take a
look at bug 15329 and tell our children or grand-children a nice little episode
from our lives about the nightmare of crazily positioned windows in KDE and how
we eventually learned to live with it.

I bid you a very warm farewell,
live long and prosper
Wolfi

Meh, I'm still not fully awake. The problem is that we don't have enough
information on X11 to identify windows and thus place them at their previous
position.

I'm afraid that we don't have enough information on X11.

The last time I tried GNOME, window positions were not remembered. Maybe they
implemented this since then, or maybe they made GTK itself remember window
positions, which would provide the illusion that their window manager Mutter is
doing it, even though it's not.

Would you be able to investigate a bit to see which approach they took?

Also KDE can currently remember the posotion of windows by adding a window
rule. But it has to be done for every program manually and thats unacceptable.
But it proves it is curreltly possible. We should get an option to remember all
window positions and sizes and be able to add window rules AS AN EXCEPTION to
that.

Well, Gnome somehow does it, i have been using it for some time and it keeps
the position and size of 99% of software i ever ran. Even most games ran
through Proton.

I'd also like this on X11, but it seems almost impossible to do, after talking
with several KWin developers about it in detail. And NVIDIA GPUs are now
supported on Wayland, FWIW.

Not everyone can use Wayland. For example i cannot because i have an nvidia
gpu. No feature should be exclusive to X11 or Waypand.

Just to set expectations it's when that lands upstream, and we implement it and
every client also implements what is relevant.

Sorry, but this is not possible to implement for a window manager. We lack
information to identify that a window is the same as previous window. Please
see Thomas's comments on that. As Thomas states this is clearly a client job
and we can only do something in frameworks for KDE applications.

On Wayland we lack the same information and I don't see a possibility to add a
spec adding the required functionality as it requires each and every
application to change. Even Qt API doesn't provide anything to specify the
required functionality.

Re-opening because a similar bug I filed remained open (Bug 79300).

Based on the list of duplicates and votes, It's clear that this is a very
highly desired feature by our users and I think we ought to put some effort
into trying to make it happen.
