Currently Kwrite does not have any way of setting things, nor can it access print.If Kate is not installed, you cannot do anything other than edit save, and with Kate installed, you have to use it's controls to modify Kwrite. Also, when you have a file open with either one and they open it with the other, it closes the first.
What settings don't you have in kwrite? Both kate and kwrite use the kate backend but I can open the same file in two instances of kwrite if I wish to, I've done it by mistake before. Regards Dave P
Yes, with both kwrite and kate installed, all of the setups are available to kwrite. If kate has not yet been installed, settings for kwrite are very limited. No font settings, no line numbers, etc. especially no printing with printers properly installed and working for Libre Office. Kate, if installed and then removed may leave the setups as they were set.
I will be build a new computer and install 42.2 on it, without kate (if possible) and see what that does. There are several hidden files I have to port over, and that may bring in the settings.

John We should take this discussion to bugzilla as it seems that kwrite is missing a dependency. Could you file a bug and add davejplater@gmail.com as cc.

Sorry, but what dependency do you think is missing? kwrite does *not* need kate to be installed. I just recently tried it on a Tumbleweed KDE LiveCD (which doesn't have kate installed, because kate is not installed at all on a standard KDE installation), and it worked fine. I think it would be interesting to know what kind of installation the OP had to be able to tell more. Maybe something is missing if one tries to install kwrite on a non-KDE installation... At least on a KDE installation, it should work fine.

If I recall correctly, kwrite has always relied on the katepart backend. kedit was the only non-entangled editor in the old kde3. And from what I've seen of Frameworks 5.27 and KDE 5, e.g. kwrite Version 16.08.2 KDE Frameworks 5.27.0 Qt 5.7.0 (built against 5.7.0) The xcb windowing system not much has changed. -- David C.

Yes, that is true. But it doesn't need kate to be installed. The katepart is in the package ktexteditor which is required by kwrite. Kind Regards, Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
