Description a4764 2016-12-19 10:57:06 UTC
kalarm version 2.11.7-5ak
Steps to reproduce:
- Open kalarm main window.
- Press ctrl-d to create a new alarm.
- Press ctrl-a to go to the "At date/time:" field.
- Press up-arrow or page-up key to adjust the alarm date.

Expected result: alarm date increases 
Actual   result: nothing happens

This did still work in Kalarm version 2.10.12-ak

The widget used to edit the date looks as if it should still respond to up-arrow and page-up, but for some reason it doesn't work in the alarm edit dialog.

Using kalarm without this feature is quite cumbersome.
Will you try to fix it?

The problem is due to bugs in the KDateComboBox class in the KDE Frameworks kwidgetsaddons library. A fix has been submitted for review at https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/129709/.

This has now been fixed in KDE Frameworks. It will be in the 5.30 release.
