Thread: Trouble with maximized windows using KDE/kwin
okay, i've installed kde4.6.2 onto pre-existing installation of natty narwhal installing kde-standard metapackage. trying run kde kwin window manager, have two, possibly related problems.
first: every single window opening automatically maximized. includes dialog boxes. can find nothing suggest why default behaviour windows, , can't find change it.
second: when window maximized, has no titlebar. can reduce them normal size right clicking window in task manager , unticking "maximize" option. gives window titlebar. if window maximised again, titlebar goes away again.
have unity, ubuntu classic , kde available options desktop environments. use kde, default window behaviour infuriating. doesn't show in other environments far, in kde. please help.
incredible.
apparently there's option kwinrc config file makes kde draw maximized windows without titlebars. here discover adding line “borderlessmaximizedwindows=true” [windows] section of kwinrc makes kde behave way it's behaving on system against will. documented somewhere?
add "borderlessmaximizedwindows=false" [windows] section of kwinrc file, "kwin --replace" , works! titlebars back.
of windows aren't defaulting maximized when open them either, although started happening before modified kwinrc file, may not related.
2 questions remain me (1) change kwinrc going persistent? , (2) how (and where) configuration kwin set behaviour didn't want?
