popupHeight and favGridCols reset to original default after exit or restart

[maxsspeaker]

for some unknown reason, the menu does not want to read the popupHeight and favGridCols values ​​from the config, which causes the menu size to reset

to these values:
popupHeight: 0
favGridCols: 200

but there were such values:
favGridCols 12
popupHeight 400

before logging out:

after logging out:

I have read other Issues but didn't find anything about it.

favGridCols: 200

200 columns wide!? Did you mix up the two? Eg:

favGridCols: 0
popupHeight: 200

If you have KDE Frameworks 5.93 then it's probably this bug #125.

Since KDE Frameworks doesn't have the ability to release a "bugfix" release, there's basically a month long window where the bug takes effect unless every since distro patches it with a fix. Affected distros are listed here:
Zren/plasma-applet-eventcalendar#307 (comment)

yes, I mixed up the numbers when I rewrote them from the settings

I have Kde Neon, and from what I read, this bug will be fixed on May 14th, but is there any way to fix it right away?

tell me please, I'm not very good at configurations and sources...

You can use Meta+RightClick+Drag to resize a window as a workaround. You'll need to do it every restart.

If you restart multiple times a day... then I guess you could:

Edit: ~/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/com.github.zren.tiledmenu/contents/ui/Main.qml

Change:

	Layout.minimumWidth: config.leftSectionWidth
	Layout.preferredWidth: config.popupWidth
	Layout.preferredHeight: config.popupHeight

to:

	Layout.minimumWidth: config.popupWidth
	Layout.minimumHeight: config.popupHeight
	Layout.preferredWidth: config.popupWidth
	Layout.preferredHeight: config.popupHeight

Note that this is untested since I can't test the bug in OpenSUSE anymore.

This worked very well for me on Manjaro Plasma.
