Am I missing something here? What is the difference in "Special Application Settings" and "Special Windows Settings"?
In fact, I don't see any difference in the two. I did the above with "Special Application Settings" instead of "Special Windows Settings" too but with the same results. At one point, I got stuck with a tiny Firefox window about 20X20 pixels in size everytime that I closed and reopened Firefox even though I had set the window size to 955X1140 using "Remember" and "Force". I extensively exercised the various options in:Īnd got all sorts of weird results. Well, this definitely is a bug of some sort, probably a KDE bug.
#FIREFOX DEFAULT WINDOW SIZE HOW TO#
I hope that some of the KDE experts can offer ideas as to how to fix this. I am new to KDE/OpenSUSE having spent many years with Gnome2 on CentOS and Ubuntu. Title Bar Context Menu > Advanced > Special Windows Settings > Geometry > Size > I have tried a variety of special windows settings but without success using: I have only observed this with Firefox and Thunderbird so I wonder if it has something to do with GTK. This is not a problem with all of the other applications that I have tried such as Konqueror or LibreOffice. Then, if you again double click on the Titlebar it then resizes to a width of 1280, however, it is supposed to return to the original window size but it does not. For example, if you double click on a Firefox Window's Titlebar then it will immediately be maximized to the full screen. Instead, it always restores the windows to a width of 1280 pixels regardless of the window size before it was maximized. If I maximize a Firefox or Thunderbird window and then subsequently restore the window it does not return to the original window size. My display is 1920X1200 and I am running KDE 4.6.5 on OpenSUSE 11.4.
