[MacPorts] #45373: Strange resizing issue with kde4-kile
#45373: Strange resizing issue with kde4-kile ------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: diochnos@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.1 Keywords: | Port: kde4-kile ------------------------+-------------------------------- Dear All, I noticed that there was a very recent update on many kde libraries (last 2-5 days) and today that I attempted to open kile and start writing text I have to face a very strange issue. The "normal" window of kile exceeds the size of my visible desktop; its dimensions are probably 2-3 times the visible horizontal space that I have for my desktop. Unfortunately, I can not resize the window and make it fit in my desktop as a whole, unless I maximize the window, in which case it is automatically adjusted to take over the entire screen. So, the problem is that even though I can resize kile vertically and see part of my desktop above or below the window, there seems to be some threshold on the horizontal resizing that I am allowed to do that is somewhere between 2-3 times the space that I have for my actual desktop. Perhaps there is a constant like 0.25 (* screen width) that takes care of this minimum allowed horizontal resizing of the window and this has changed by one decimal to 2.5 by accident? I really can not think of anything else, since up until last week I had no such "visibility" issues and I could resize the window normally. I also tested if the same problem is apparent on okular, kwrite, and kate, but I have no resizing issues there, which makes it even weirder. I am running 10.9.5 with all the relevant updates provided by Apple on an 11-inch Air. I am referring to MacPorts version 2.3.1. For what it's worth, I have also installed poppler with the variants +qt4+quartz. Thanks in advance for your time. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/45373> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

Oct 2014. This bug is probably an issue between the minimum window option in Qt and some settings in kile. What I have tried/observed so far: Removing kilerc (~/Library/Preferences/KDE/share/config) does not solve this problem. kate's minimum window size is much smaller then kile's. So i guess its not an issue with kate (the internal text editor of kile?). Removing the full KDE (~/Library/Preferences) configurations folder does neither help. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/45373#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

The easy solution is be just to deactivate it, but as kile seems to be the only application having this issue, it may be possible to keep the advantage of the patch while solving the kile resizing issue. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/45373#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

In the meantime, there's a simpler workaround than rebuilding kdelibs4. Find kile's settings file (kilerc?) in /Library/Preferences/KDE/share/config , and make sure it has the following: {{{ [KFileDialog Settings] Native=false }}} i.e. either add a line "Native=false" to an existing KFileDialog section, or add the section with the line, as shown. This will make kile use non- native (i.e. KDE) style dialogs. This is something I use for kdenlive for instance, but in that app's case it is only the file dialogs that are garbled in native mode, nothing else. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/45373#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
