Description Frederik Schwarzer 2008-07-21 19:40:12 UTC
Version:           1.10.0 (using KDE 4.0.98)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

This behaviour can be seen in the mail reading window.

1. position the mouse cursor above a word
2. make a double click
(the word is marked)
3. click once
4. make a double click
(the whole line is marked)
5. make a double click with the whole line marked
(the word is marked)

Note that you must not move the mouse while following
theses steps. Having a touchpad (with separated mouse
buttons) helps.

Reassigning to KHTML.
Comment 2 Thomas McGuire 2008-07-21 19:46:32 UTC
Really reassign this time...
Comment 3 Christophe Marin 2008-07-21 20:20:39 UTC
Where is the problem exactly ?
Comment 4 Frederik Schwarzer 2008-07-21 21:11:50 UTC
Where you read the content of the mail.
Comment 5 Christophe Marin 2008-07-21 22:13:35 UTC
ok, retrying. What is the problem ? (ie. what did you expect ?)
Comment 6 Frederik Schwarzer 2008-07-21 23:55:54 UTC
The first double click (step 2) marks the word.
The second double click (step 4 marks the whole line.

I would expect the second double click to mark only the word as well.
Double click -> word.
Tripple click -> line.

Here using:

Qt: 4.4.3
KDE: 4.1.85 (KDE 4.1.85 (KDE 4.2 Beta2))
kdelibs svn rev. 899135 / kdebase svn rev. 899135
on ArchLinux x86_64 - Kernel 2.6.27.8

(testing in this page https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=167163)

Double click on word -> word selected
(minimum delay)
Double click on word again -> word selected

Triple click on word -> word selected

Can anyone else confirm this behaviour ?

(There are some pages where this functionallity is completely broken and words aren't select correctly : bug 166241 )

The problem occurs with Konqueror 4.5.4 / Qt 4.7.1 / Fedora 14 as well, using KHTML (Webkit works as expected.) But it only occurs when you:
- Double click a word
- Click one time on the now selected word, so it is deselected.
- Double click on the same word again (now the whole line is selected)

It does not happen when you click on another word between the two double clicks.
