[Bug 1003399] New: Desktop layout and wallpaper changes don't stick
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1003399 Bug ID: 1003399 Summary: Desktop layout and wallpaper changes don't stick Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 42.2 Hardware: Other OS: All Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE Workspace (Plasma) Assignee: opensuse-kde-bugs@opensuse.org Reporter: nwr10cst-oslnx@yahoo.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: Beta-Customer Blocker: --- When I login to opensuse/KDE, I normally expect the desktop layout with a folder view widget. After installing 42.2 (clean install, no save user settings), and login: The layout was folder-view, with icons for HOME and TRASH directly on the desktop. There was no folder-view widget. I changed all of that. I switched to "Desktop" layout. I changed the wallpaper. I added a "folder view" widget. It all looked good. Then I logged out, and logged in again (without rebooting). And it had reverted to the initial settings (folder view layout, no widget, default wallpaper). Other desktop settings worked ('focus follows mouse', settings for "konsole" (this still has to be set twice), number of virtual desktops). Those settings were not lost on logout/login. But the layout, wallpaper and widget are all lost. This might be an upstream issue. But I figure that you want to know about it here. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Luckily it has been found already and fixed upstream: http://commits.kde.org/plasma-workspace/53b2a407af9d1d60cfbb1a42af8546ab0a15... We'll look into incorporating the fix in our packages. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

When I login to opensuse/KDE, I normally expect the desktop layout with a folder view widget.
After installing 42.2 (clean install, no save user settings), and login:
The layout was folder-view, with icons for HOME and TRASH directly on the desktop. There was no folder-view widget.
This is an intended change in our branding, no bug. See: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/431286 Though I have to say (here) that I also don't really like that sudden change too. And I have no idea who the mentioned majority was that decided it... But well. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Okay. Fair enough. I'm not really bothered by that, since I should be able to change it back for myself. That I cannot change it back, is the problem. I'm glad to hear that a fix is on the way. Perhaps there should be mention of the branding change in the announcements for the release. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

The change is indeed a change in the branding; 2. The inability to keep the layout when switching from/to Folder View as a desktop is an actual bug, uncovered and fixed today by Plasma developers. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Yes, and it's obvious that this bug report is about the latter. Which should be fixed by the latest submits mentioned in comment#5. I just wanted to clear up #1. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

To avoid possible misunderstandings, I wanted to _explain_ #1. Sorry. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
