Hi Matthew, I cannot see the problem myself. If I single-click anywhere in the main area, using the default KDE settings (which looks like click-to-focus), it will focus the window and will not select any text. Selection only happens if you double click or click and drag. I can't seem to reproduce it at home, either, but no problems reproducing it at work. Some factors that may be relevant (i.e. different between home and work): - using Xinerama, Konsole is not on the active screen - Konsole in full-screen mode - program running that is producing output and causing the buffer to scroll - x86_64 - system under load Hmm... and I just noticed, if Konsole already has focus, I'm not seeing the problem. So I bet one or more of the above is indeed needed. More testing... something making the buffer scroll is not needed. I'm seeing it with FF maximized and Konsole running full-screen (on separate screens, FF screen has my panel), nothing besides Konsole on the other screen). A single click with no mouse motion (tested by lifting the mouse off the table before clicking) often selects from the click location to the end of that line. When it happens there also seems to often be a noticeable delay before Konsole gets focus. Interestingly enough... I'm now noticing this phenomena in oocalc (and, thus taking another look at it, can reproduce with kwrite also). Apparently it's the fault of something higher in the stack. Sigh. Ergo: RESOLVED -> UPSTREAM (I guess that's appropriate for "real bug, but elsewhere"...) |
