Panels do not save their position

Subpath

Is there a chance that the panels will be reopened at the last place
they were closed, even after a restart?

I can't remember how many times I've moved panels to the place I want.
At the moment, at least for me, they are sometimes placed in the bottom
left corner, or on the right side or somewhere else on the canvas. In any
case not at the place they were last closed.

It would be nice if there was a way to do this.

This should be working, if not it is a bug.

Select the Help -> Reveal Workspace folder, and see of there are "settings.xml" and "panelstate.xml" files there. What is the date and size of these files?

Same for me.

When I select "Help" -> "Reveal Workspace Folder" nothing is displayed

so i looked in
C:\Users\me2\AppData\Local\NumericPath\VectorStyler1.2\vector\data\resources

settings.xml
Date: 18.09.2024
Size: 11 KB

panelstate.xml
Date: 18.09.2024
Size: 59 KB

This might also be a problem.

panelstate.xml

The state of the panels is saved into this file.

I will open a bug on this and try to replicate it.

@Subpath Send me those files form the workspace folder by email. it seems that the panel stae is stored (the file exists), but for some reason it is not loaded.

@Subpath I could not replicate the panel state issue with these files. One thing to try is to exit VS and remove all files in the /resources/ folder where the panel state file was.

I did this, but it did not work
or rather it only works once
then the panels are opened in the bottom left corner
