https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=392426 --- Comment #10 from cat22 --- I think this can be closed because the behavior i reported is not happening 3 years hence and kate works as I would expect it to. Thanks - -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Mello I think the non-dialog warning that Kate uses by default addresses your problems with the dialog. You can try it by disabling the "Warn about files modified by foreign processes" (which is currently a bit misleading). It only shows when you keybord/mouse focus is given to the modified file and, as previously mentioned above, has an "Enable Auto Reload" option. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

There I commented something like: When the 'warn about file changes' setting is turned on, you can still make kate stay in the background by setting focus stealing prevention to high in window behaviour setting. When the setting is not turned on, you still get notified about externally modified files in the in document notification area (message). There you have the option to turn on auto-reoad. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=392426 --- Comment #4 from k3bBug --- in Kate 20.04.2 if i enable "Warn about files modified by foreign processes" and then go to a konsole terminal and modify a file that's opened in kate (with kate behind the konsole window), kate immediately moves to the foreground with the warning dialog open. 20.04.2 is all i have access to without compiling and reinstalling. What is the version this is fixed in? With the above turned off, if I then select auto-reload from the menu and repeat the file modification thing like before - the file is auto reloaded and no focus stealing or dialog occurs. <= this is good! It lets me watch log files. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=392426 --- Comment #3 from Justin Zobel --- Note: I just looked and the notification comes up with an Enable Auto Reload option so that should solve this issue. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

It waits until it has focus to check if the file has changed. As for it ignoring changes without it grabbing focus I can't see this being a huge inconvenience. Can you please test and confirm if this issue is still occurring or if this bug report can be marked as resolved. I'm setting status to "needsinfo" pending your response, please change back to "reported" or "resolved" when you respond, thanks. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=392426 Peter J. Mello changed: What|Removed |Added CC||ad...@petermello.net --- Comment #1 from Peter J. Mello --- If I might weigh in on this issue...I came by intending to file a bug report very much like this one, and not knowing the dev team's preference in such instances, I'll err on the side of less clutter, I confess that this behavior is currently my least favorite from Kate, though my concept of how it might be improved approached from a different angle. The fundamental logic behind it feels sound to me, only incomplete. What if the only change made to the existing dialog prompting a reaction to external modifications was an optional drop down function from the ignore button that offered the ability to: A) Ignore changes to that file for the remainder of the session and warn only on an attempt to save the file B) Ignore for n minutes (I picture this as being a nested menu inside the drop-down, with a submenu of natural intervals measured in minutes) C) Lock out all inputs and refresh without confirmation (admittedly this one is more radical than the first two, I include it merely to illustrate the range of relatively foreseeable user desires) That's all I've got. You guys have really been killing it lately, IMO. Not to say that Kate hasn't always been quality software, but speaking candidly, prior to last year it was relegated mostly to the random occasions Dolphin didn't have a default for SublimeText3 or VSCode for whatever MIMEType I was opening. I'm bad with version numbers but at some point this summer, I realized I was burning an awful lot of mouse clicks on "Open With... -> Kate" and began flipping those default handlers over to Kate and haven't looked back. I was gonna lead off with this sentiment but I worried it might cheapen my suggestion if it seemed I was trying to butter your bread first. Sorry for rambling; I look forward to any responses that may be forthcoming. -Peter -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
