Bug ID: 454519 Summary: The help center doesn't open on its index page Product: khelpcenter Version: 5.8.22041 Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: kde-doc-engl...@kde.org Reporter: ilikef...@waterisgone.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY The help center doesn't open on its index page (first page, contents) STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Use KDE Neon 2. Open start menu 3. Click on Help OBSERVED RESULT The Help center opens in windowed mode with a left panel opened by default and the right panel / content blank (white) Making it fullscreen seems to make the left panel unnecessary wide None of the texts lengths in it it seem to require that much space in fullscreen mode Clicking on the first item in the "Contents" tab, which is "Fundamentals" seems to bring the index page on the right panel If the user has changed the setting "Clicking files or folders" in the control panel to "Selects them" before opening the Help center, the just simply clicking on the "Fundamentals" or "Introduction" doesn't work anymore like before EXPECTED RESULT The Help center should open with its first page with its first page, contents already visible in the right / content panel instead of just a blank white page. If the the user makes the program fullscreen from the "Maximize" button or dragging it to the top edge, the left panel width should not be proportional to how it was in the windowed mode as the text has not increased proportionally to require that and it uses too much space that it's better used in the other, the content panel. The help center should not follow the "Clicking files or folders" setting from the control panel and should always work with single clicks in the left panel, it's easier that way and probably better for usability. Also the "Clicking files or folders" option clearly says it's for files or folders, not for links / anchors like in that panel. BTW, one more thing, the top level items in that panel, like the "Fundamentals", "Plasma Manual" doesn't have that right pointing arrow to signal that they have other subsections. Maybe it is intentional because of the already existing icons made it harder to add it too, but I though to mentioned it too, maybe having a complete tree-view it's better to understand where you are and how sections are organized, which are single pages and which have subsections SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.90 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.95 Qt Version: 5.15.4 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION From: neon-testing-20220524-1822.iso + updates from Discover Tested on Wayland -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
