Why is that needed? We have KWin configured to use the maximized positioning strategy.

Okay I was missing that kwinrc from plasma-phone-settings but still IMO it should be handled independent of kwin, no?

If I start it on my FullHD screen for testing I certainly do not want to have it started as maximized. That would be highly annoying.

Given that for fullscreen there is a config option, I suggest to make maximized also a config option.

I'd actually prefer doing this via a commandline switch or a kwin script. Otherwise, it's unnecessarily hard to start plasma-settings non-maximized.

Easiest is probably to just add -f to the .desktop file's Exec line.
