Dear Maintainer,

Not sure how long this has been going on -- I normally have two virtual
desktops, and I like to have telegram-desktop present on both of them.

So I've set up KDE window rules to make it so. And they worked fine.

Recently I've noticed that Telegram was only on one desktop. I looked
for the titlebar in order to pin it, and then realized there's no
titlebar.

So I set a Window Rule to "Apply Initially" that the titlebar be present,
in addition to the initially-applied "Virtual Desktop: All Desktops".

Open opening Telegram, it just ignored these.

I could change them to "Force", I guess...

Hello!

If you prefer to see KDE's titlebar on Telegram Desktop, set the
System window frame checkbox in advanced settings inside the app.

Hi Nicholas,

Thanks for the tip. In case anyone else sees this -- initially, when
you set the checkbox, Telegram's own titlebar disappears and the KDE one
does not appear, leaving the window with no titlebar at all. Only after
closing and reopening the window (e.g. by clicking the Telegram tray
icon), the KDE titlebar shows up.

I should note that even with this, the rule
	Virtual Desktop: Apply Initially / All Desktops
Does not achieve anything. And it used to.
