Dolphin defaults to a size larger than my screen and often locks in place so I cannot move it to resize it. I just don't even bother with Dolphin any more. The loss of extensions pretty well crippled it anyway.
<ALT>+<LeftMouseButton> == move window so you can get access to window controls <ALT>+<RightMouseButton> == Resize Edge/Corner near your mouse I don't recall for sure, but i think Dolphin defaults to "last size used" when re-opened. You could try using KWin Window-Specific settings to force dolphin size. Click the window app-icon in upper left, select "More Actions->Special Window Settings", then under "Size & Position" click the enable gadget for "Size", set "Apply Initially" and specify a size. theoretically, if things work right, everytime you open a NEW dolphin, it should come up as that size. If not, you could try using "Force". FWIW, I haven't tried bleeding edge of KDE, using whatever is in Debian Stretch at this point, but i am pretty disgusted by the state of almost all software these days. I have more issues with the current software set with a 32GB desktop than i had with 6GB 10 years ago. Stuff like the Task Manager failing to group 60 Firefox windows together, Plasmashell being completely non-responsive after switching windows, plasmashell locking up forever due to single-threaded handling of systray stuff like NetworkManager (requiring a complete kquitapp5 (which often doesn't work), pkill plasmashell; plasmashell &). Can't blame it on KDE, maybe, but also, Xorg constantly blanks out my screen momentarily (dual-monitor, sometimes only one monitor blanks out). This gets worse as the number of windows/X-activity grows. Also happening on my single-monitor docked laptop setup at home. I really hate to say it, but i'm at my wits end, and i don't think Gnome will necessarily be much better, but may be more stable. --stephen
