            Bug ID: 330775
           Summary: no window decoration on restart if previously closed
                    when fullscreen
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: konsole
           Version: 2.12.1
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: konsole-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: luigi.rocca at fastwebnet.it

Konsole sometimes starts with a window that is as big as a fullscreen one would
be, but that is not fullscreen nor normal. It has a window bar and title, but
no decorations or borders. It is impossibile to resize it. The only way to get
out of this unfunctional state is to press the "resize/maximize" button on the
window bar.
This happens only after Konsole has been previously closed by sending ctrl-D
when fullscreen.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. go fullscreen.
2. close with a ctrl-D.
3. open konsole again.
Actual Results:  
big window that as bar but no borders (inconsistent state) and cannot be
resized by normal means.

Expected Results:  
either:
1) open konsole fullscreen;
2) open a normal konsole window that is as big as the previous, NON-fullscreen
normal konsole windows was;
3) open a normal konsole windows that is as big as the current desktop allows
(maximazed state).

I think all three options could be considered valid. My preference is option 2)
because it seems to me that fullscreen is a special state that should not be
remembered across quits, and therefore the normal state of the window should be
then remembered (and would be lost otherwise).

It seems to me that 3) would be the worst option, since it would go to a state
that was never set by the user, I wouldn't see the point and would consider it
a slight misfeature.
