           Summary: Knotes issues on Windows
           Product: knotes
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: MS Windows
        OS/Version: MS Windows
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: public at aryanameri.com


Version:            (using KDE 4.1.0)
Compiler:          MSVC Binary supplied by kdewin-installer 
OS:                MS Windows
Installed from:    MS Windows

The following issues can be observed when using notes on Windows:

The application can not be moved. It stays at the middle of the screen, it can
be resized but it can not be moved; i.e., it seems to be locked perpetually
there. Of course locking and unlocking don't seem to have any effects on it. 

The "keep above others" and "keep below others" functions seems to have no
effect. 

The application's name does not appear on the windows taskbar. There is a
placeholder on the taskbar, and the knotes icon is there, but it's name does
not appear. 

Right clicking on the application's placeholder on the windows taskbar does not
produce any pop-up menu. It should normally produce the standard windows menu
with Close, Restore, move, size, minimize and maximize options. 

In the preferences dialog, the "show notes in taskbar" has no effect. Notes is
always shown in taskbar, regardless of this setting.

In the same dialog box, the "remember desktop" dialog box might be irrelevant
in windows, as virtual desktops do not exists in MS Windows by default. Of
course this also depends on whether KDE Workspace on windows will ever
implement virtual desktops.

The "Mail" option on a right-click menu automatically brings up Kmail.
Shouldn't it look up for Windows' default MUA and use that, instead of
automatically reverting to KMail?
