KDE 4.4.5 Kile 2.0.85 Beta quirks

Hi,

Running Fedora 13 KDE 4.4.5 and yum installed Kile. This gave me Kile 2.0.85 Beta.

So I have a Kile project with many files. Each time I start up Kile, the files are displayed in the tree (panel on the left, 'Files and projects' tab) in alphabetical order, instead of as a tree representing the project. Whenever I open a file, it gets included in a tree the way that it should be. But to render a complete tree of my project I have to open each and every file!

Within the project I have many labels. Whenever I wish to add a reference to a label somewhere in my text, the 'code completion' (ctrl-space) shows only those labels that are not new and are in open files. Instead of all available labels, old and new.

Is this normal Kile behaviour? Does anyone else see these two quirks?

Cheers,
Nik

ps sorry if it's the wrong forum. Move if necessary.

Hi Nik,

I also have this behavior on my computer at my university. It's really a weird thing, and annoying actually. At university, we have Kile 2.0.85 running on KDE 4.4.x (Gentoo).

At home, I recently installed Kubuntu 10.10, KDE 4.5.1 and the same version of Kile as above. Here the project loads as expected, so any labels are available via autocomplete, even if the corresponding file was not open before.

I am unsure whether the difference in the KDE Version is truely the solution the problem.

Since I can not change the linux installation at university, I would be curious to know, whether you came up with a solution in the meantime. Thanks!

Best,

Michael

P.S.: Just to clarify: the project is completely the same at home and university, since it is in the same SVN. The Kile settings should also be pretty much the same.
