Bug ID: 463194
Summary: Do not like the new Kwrite. Please revert back to
22.04.3.
Classification: Applications
Product: kate
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kwrite
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: kdekdo...@yopmail.fr
Target Milestone: ---
I just did a distribution update on OpenSUSE and ended up with KWrite 22.12.0.
After doing nothing more than typing `kwrite` on the command line I am faced
with the choice of reporting these two bugs:
1. "Intro" screen is completely unnecessary and breaks my workflow. If there is
a program that doesn't need a welcome sort of UI, that is KWrite. Just open and
start typing.
2. The menu hamburger appears twice. Once on the window decoration, as it's
supposed to with my KDE settings, and again in the application itself. That is
dumb.
But at the end of the day, this and other bugs such as what is reported under
bug 458621 (and likely others) boils down to one thing:
**KWrite was fine as it was. It did not need any changes to the user interface.
It didn't need tabs. It didn't need an unwelcome (sic) page. God knows what
else has crept in that didn't need to be there.**
I appreciate that someone invested his time on these changes, no doubt with the
best of intentions, and I am grateful for that; the intention was certainly
noble. But the easiest way out is to go back to square zero (version 22.04.3 in
this case) and unless something *is* broken, please leave it be. Thanks.
