Version: 1.3 (using KDE 4.1.2) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages Can not copy/paste text within Kontact and to other applications using Ctrl-C/Crtl-V. Only with right-click menu.
Can you still reproduce this bug with a recent KDE (4.1.4 / 4.2beta2 / 4.2rc1 / 4.2svn / 4.3svn) ? From/to what Kontact component can't you copy/paste ? Thanks :)
I am using KDE 4.1.3 from current updates. The 'bug' concerns Kontact-Mail: copy/paste using CtrlC/CtrlV of text from/within Kontact-Mail does not work, even with hotkeys defined.
And using only KMail (without Kontact), can you reproduce the bug too ?
Yes
So, it seems it's a KMail bug. (Anyways the code for KMail changed a lot in KDE4.2 it may be already fixed)
this might be the same issue as in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=172547 any, i have the same thing too. kontact tells me in an info window that ======================= *snip* ======================= The key sequence 'Ctrl+C' is ambiguous. Use 'Configure Shortcuts' from the 'Settings' menu to solve the ambiguity. No action will be triggered. ======================= *snap* ======================= -- indeed: in [settings->configure shortcuts], you'll find the action copy listed *twice*, and twice assigned to ctrl+c. i guess this might be the problem.. cheers, nico

AFAIK this was a kdelibs bug and fixed in trunk.
I installed 4.2 last weekend and can confirm: Copy/Paste works like a charm now, everywhere in KMail/Kontact.
Good for you! It still doesn't work for me however. I have come to the conclusion that the current bugs I am experiencing are not going to be solved. So I will reinstall from DVD coming april
I still have the problem here in the most up to date suse rpms for KDE 4.2.2 / kmail 1.11.2. Same issue with duplicated key bindings.
important point probably: the issue only appears in the seperate email window (which opens when double clicking on an email). In the embedded email view it works as expected.
