Bug ID: 431125 Summary: Display prefs (such as "line number visibility") don't get saved Product: kate Version: 20.12.0 Platform: Archlinux Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: minor Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: bugs.kde....@seyfarth.de Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY Display prefs (such as "line number visibility") don't get saved STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Kate, line numbers are displayed 2. Press F11, line numbers are not displayed 3. Close and reopen Kate, line numbers are displayed OBSERVED RESULT Some user preferences are not remembered EXPECTED RESULT Last visual setting should be remembered SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch (current) KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.77.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I just installed Arch from scratch on my new laptop and encounter one strange thing: On my old system Kate's sidebar visibility preferences were saved when closing and reopening it. This does not work on the new system and I cannot figure out why. Here is what I see in journalctl -f: → Start (from Task bar) plasmashell: file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.taskmanager/contents/ui/main.qml:460: TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined kwin_x11: qt.qpa.xcb: QXcbConnection: XCB error: 3 (BadWindow), sequence: 4589, resource id: 25166249, major code: 18 (ChangeProperty), minor code: 0 systemd: Started Kate - Erweiterter Texteditor. plasmashell: file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.taskmanager/contents/ui/main.qml:460: TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined kdeinit5: Qt: Session management error: networkIdsList argument is NULL → Ctrl-Q kwin_x11: qt.qpa.xcb: QXcbConnection: XCB error: 3 (BadWindow), sequence: 6874, resource id: 90177646, major code: 18 (ChangeProperty), minor code: 0 kwin_x11: qt.qpa.xcb: QXcbConnection: XCB error: 3 (BadWindow), sequence: 6878, resource id: 92274699, major code: 18 (ChangeProperty), minor code: 0 systemd: app-org.kde.kate-7689b826fb064e0ea17ee05fae475570.scope: Succeeded. kwin_x11: qt.qpa.xcb: QXcbConnection: XCB error: 3 (BadWindow), sequence: 6884, resource id: 25166250, major code: 18 (ChangeProperty), minor code: 0 Aditionally I get these (the dictionary error multiple times) on the console since I did not yet install any spell checking. I think that these should not clutter syslog in such way. Test for spell plugins and report ONCE that none have been found. kate: kf.sonnet.core: Sonnet: Unable to load plugin "/usr/lib/qt/plugins/kf5/sonnet/sonnet_aspell.so" Error: "Cannot load library /usr/lib/qt/plugins/kf5/sonnet/sonnet_aspell.so: (libaspell.so.15: …)" kate: kf.sonnet.core: Sonnet: Unable to load plugin "/usr/lib/qt/plugins/kf5/sonnet/sonnet_hspell.so" Error: "Cannot load library /usr/lib/qt/plugins/kf5/sonnet/sonnet_hspell.so: (libhspell.so.0: …)" kate: kf.sonnet.core: Sonnet: Unable to load plugin "/usr/lib/qt/plugins/kf5/sonnet/sonnet_voikko.so" Error: "Cannot load library /usr/lib/qt/plugins/kf5/sonnet/sonnet_voikko.so: (libvoikko.so.1: …)" kate: kf.sonnet.core: No language dictionaries for the language: "de_DE" trying to load en_US as default kate: kf.sonnet.core: No language dictionaries for the language: "en_US" My questions: - Why aren't my display prefs (like line number visibility) not saved? The program settings (like font size) DO get saved! How to debug it further? - Is the "kdeinit5: Qt: Session management error: networkIdsList argument is NULL" error related to my issue? How to debug it further? - What are the "TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined"? Does that have anything to do with my issue? - What are the "XCB errors (BadWindow)"? Should I report them elsewhere or does the Kate team know and handle these? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
