--- Comment #3 from Friedrich W. H. Kossebau <kosse...@kde.org> ---
Made a separate reminder to myself about the handbook by the new bug 465780, as
I see how that might have helped.
Now to your proposed solutions for your problem:
#1 (remembering the last used setting) is something worth to considering next
to the view profile system, for those who have not yet discovered it or prefer
always the last manual settings over some configured default. After all the
tools with parameters in recent versions also remember the last parameters
manually set (do not remember though why the search/replace dialogs did not get
that also).
#2 (some central config dialog) is something I personally try to avoid, instead
try to have any config as close as possible to the actiual UI. Even more as
Okteta is made of elements which are designed to be embedded into other
software, where the configuration also needs to be available (cmp.

still valid a decade later :) ). Having separately another way via a central
settings dialog for mass configuration makes sense to me also, but had not yet
got to that, due to complexity when embedding/integrating into other
applications.
#3 (setting view properties as additional args on the commandline) might be
interesting. Comes with the challenge that Okteta supports multiple documents
(and even multiple views on the same document), so perhaps someone might want
to have more fine control which document to show with which view settings. For
this I first would like to gather a good set of use cases that need this very
solution for other reasons to properly design the support.
So after this first round of thinking, would keep this report open with the
focus on the feature request for remembering the last manual view settings.
Might take some time before I get to it, as currently working on other things.
Happy to get more comments on the matter though to consider then at the time of
going to implementation.
