            Bug ID: 450686
           Summary: Kate window always opens too small
           Product: kate
           Version: 21.12.2
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: aar...@doofus.org
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
For some reason, every time I create a new kate session, kate opens in a corner
of my screen and the window is far too small to use. I do not see any overrides
 There are no special window settings or application settings as far as I can
tell.

I might add that my desktop setup consists of two 1920x1200 displays and two
3840x2160 displays. The primary displays are the 3840x2160 screens and this is
where new sessions are created.

I do not see this issue with other KDE applications.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Start a new KDE session, i.e. on the command line "kate -n"

OBSERVED RESULT
Kate appears in a corner of the screen and defaults to only 20 columns.

EXPECTED RESULT
I expect a reasonably sized Kate window that can display at least 80 columns
without having to resize it.


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: OpenSUSE 15.3
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 
KDE Frameworks Version:  5.91.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

It appears that these settings are stored in the anonymous session, though even
though I resize the window before closing the new settings do not seem to take
effect. If I manually edit the file it still reverts to the old settings,
though I have not tried closing all instances of Kate and I have many active
instances since I'm in the middle of several big projects.
