window stays open on extraction

[indexofrefraction]

if i open an compressed file with keka 1.1.0, the preference window pops up and stays open
the selected tab seems to be stored when quitting and starting again
but the window closed state is not stored

This seems like a duplicate of #38, but must be solved. Any chance do you use afloat widget?
What Mac OS X/macOS version are you using?

Thanks for the feedback @indexofrefraction!

[indexofrefraction]

hey, no i'm not using any special widgets i'm on sierra 10.12.6 also this bug was not present on the last version on keka before 1.1.0 the only thing special i did was to replace kekas icon with the old one, bc i dont like the comic style of the new one but i dont think that is related to the window

What is your "Close Keka when no windows are open" option set to?

[indexofrefraction]

hey... it was off... now i set it to on... and that fixed it. means ... i set it to on, closed all windows, quitted then opened a zip with keka.. and the window didnt open anymore now... i set it to off again, closed all windows, quitted then opened a zip with keka.. and the window didnt open anymore, too

Thanks @gingerbeardman! I'm not sure how you've made that connection... 👍🏼 @indexofrefraction note that with that option disabled, if Keka is activated and there's no operation in progress, the main window will appear.

I assume this issue can be closed now @indexofrefraction?

Good news @indexofrefraction

@aonez it was just a hunch :) you have to trust your instincts

[indexofrefraction]

well.. you can fix it by checking the option, but this is kind of a trick it seems, that the window closed state doesnt get stored if "close keka when no windows are open" is off... this should be fixed, or others will run in the same problem

[aonez]

@indexofrefraction the window state is never stored. Keka opens the main window if:

• Keka opens with no input (file to compress or extract)
• Keka is already opened, with no window visible and no operations active, and becomes active

I'm not sure what the problem was here. I've tried to replicate with no luck. Will leave it open, in case others have this issue 😊

This is still unfixed as of 2024.
