Description
Quite a few of the dialog boxes in qgis don't remember their location and size - I think that they should. Culprits include:
- line and area measure
- help viewer
- all of the plugin dialogs
- attribute table
- bookmarks
The identify results, the qgis window, the printer composer do remember their size and position.
History
#1 Updated by Tom Elwertowski almost 18 years ago
The fix for #440 can be added to these too.
#2 Updated by Tim Sutton over 17 years ago
- blocker - bugs that should block the release. Since we are going to release pretty much 'come what may' I would like no bugs
- allocated to this category without consultation with me and / or PSC
- critical - bugs that cause the application to crash or corrupt data
- major - application features that do not function at all
- minor - features that function but imerfectly e.g. labels placing incorrectly
- trivial - gui useability issues or small issues with the documentation, install notes etc.

================================
Checked this on QGIS 1.0.0 Preview II. Confirmed behaviour fixed for:
1. Line and Area Measure
2. Attribute Table
3. Help Contents
Dialogs that still had this problem:
1. New Bookmark
2. Show Bookmarks
3. Plug-ins:
All Tested - from "Add WFS" to "Georeferencer"
