Description Jonas H. 2009-11-02 19:41:31 UTC 
Rhythmbox does not remember the geometry (w, h, x, y) of widgets (sources widget, library widget, ...). They will be forgotten every time I close and then open the UI (quit the program, minimize-maximize it).
Comment 1 Jonathan Matthew 2009-11-02 20:06:02 UTC 
Works properly for me.  Perhaps gconf is broken somehow for you.  Or perhaps I didn't check the things you're thinking of because you didn't identify anything specifically.
Comment 2 Jonas H. 2009-11-02 20:53:31 UTC 
Okay, this is on current Ubuntu:

$ dpkg -l rhythmbox
ii  rhythmbox      0.12.5-0ubuntu

I'm talking about that widget sizer bars with which you can change the size of e.g. the source widget and the browser widget.
Comment 3 Jonathan Matthew 2009-11-02 21:37:33 UTC 
OK, sounds like your gconf is broken. You could try using gconf-editor to watch the values in /apps/rhythmbox/state/ to see if they're being updated properly, I guess.
Comment 4 Jonas H. 2009-11-02 21:53:50 UTC 
Weird. Now the /apps/rhythmbox/state/paned_position key is saved correctly; however the /apps/rhythmbox/state/library/paned_position key always jumps back to 272.
Comment 5 Jonathan Matthew 2009-11-03 02:46:50 UTC 
I don't know how to go about finding out what's doing that, but that's what you need to do.
