Bug Description
Zim 0.62 on Ubuntu 14.10
The state of dialogs such as TaskListDialog or InsertDateDialog is not correctly remembered accross reboots.
Steps to reproduce the problem
- Insert date
- Select another date format, turn calendar on
Next time in a current session, the settings are correctly remembered. However, after a reboot, ZIM reverts to a default state.
Could this be a problem with the cache (~/.cache/
(I guess this is a functionality introduced to allow opening a Zim notebook over a network, allwoing to keep track of changes on the local file system. My notebook however is just on the local drive)
Changed in zim: | |
status: | New → Confirmed |
importance: | Undecided → Medium |
Some more ingo after investigation: it is not a matter of "between reboots", but of not writing out config about a dialog in the cache if the dialog was not used.
To reproduce:
Open ZIM, open DateDialog, change settings. Close ZIM
Open ZIM, open DateDialog: settings are remembered
Open ZIM and DO NOT open DateDialog, Close ZIM. Now settings for DateDialog are not written out!
Open ZIM again: settings for DateDialog are lost.
