I guess nautilus shouldn't store the last window size if the window is maximized. Let me repeat this:
1) Open _two or more_ Nautilus windows.
2) Maximize *one* window
3) Close the maximized one *first*, THEN
4) Close the other window(s) which are NOT maximized.
5) Open a new window.
Result: Newly opened window(s) start up maximized.
EXPECTED Result: Newly opened windows should start up
_UN-maximized_
#COMMENT:
Shouldn't the new window remember the _last state_?
i.e. the unmaximized state, since that was the _last size_ when the
*last opened* window was closed?
IMHO, if the _last opened_ window were maximized, and the _last one_ to
be closed _while in that state_, then and only then, would it be logical for
_newly opened windows to start up maximized_,
not vice-versa, as is now the case ...
Did the two windows both show the same location? Window geometry is stored per-directory. Anyway, this is fixed in gnome cvs by never storing the geometry of a maximized window. That makes no sense anyway. Created attachment 90577 [details]
screen captures of windows opened and closed
I hope this can more clearly illustrate what happens (a "picture being
worth a thousand words"... in effect).
In other words, it behaves exactly like i said, and is now fixed in cvs. fixed in rawhide. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20030221 Description of problem: If one or more windows of Nautilus are opened and _at least one_ is maximized, then closed, subsequent 'new' windows will load in maximized state, and 'refuse' to return to the default size. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open one or more Nautilus windows. Maximize _at least_ one window 2. Close maximized window(s) whilst in that state. 3. Open new windows Actual Results: Newly opened windows open maximized, and will not return to "default" (i.e. "unmaximized") state. They have to be resized manually. Expected Results: New windows should open at default size (e.g. 1/3 full-screen size). Additional info: This behavoir was also observed in the two previous Phoebe betas, and persists in Phoebe3 / RH 8.0.94.
