Dear Maintainer,

on my desktop (KDE-plasma) I'm using 3 windows of dolphin with different often needed folders. When I log out and subsequently log in again the 3 windows are not restored correct. They all have the same coordinates and the same size, so I have to rearrange the windows at each login. The system remembers the number and content of the windows correct, but not coordinates and size. In the previous version everything worked fine.

Regards

Günter

Hi Günter,

I can reproduce the issue with Dolphin. The window placement after a
Plasma session restore works for me for other applications such as Kate
or Gwenview though. Those windows are placed exactly where they were
before the shutdown. But sadly not for Dolphin.

You can try to adjust how windows are placed on your desktop. The
setting can be found in the System settings > Window Management > Window
Behaviour > Advanced.

If that doesn't help, then I suggest you either file a bug upstream or
ask for help on either the forums (https://forum.kde.org) or on IRC/
Matrix.
