Version: 4.2.2 (KDE 4.2.2) (using 4.2.2 (KDE 4.2.2), Debian packages) Compiler: cc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.28-1-686 When Konqueror embeds a KPart, e.g. the Advanced Text Editor or other viewers, it merges all shortcuts and keeps them active. Also, the ATE is no longer read-only when embedded. As a result, it is very easy to type into an open document. Trying to undo the damage with Ctrl-Z is greeted by an "Ambiguous Shortcut Detected" error message. The problem appears to be that Konqueror treats all shortcuts the same. It could be solved by giving priority to the innermost component starting from the focus.
I've just came across this too ... I tried to refresh a document viewed in kwrite kpart under konqueror by hitting F5, and it refused to do anything, despite the fact that F5 has the same meaning in both cases
Konqueror doesn't do any shortcut priority handlings, that's all done in Qt (which indeed treats all shortcuts equal, even when setting shortcut contexts). Anyway, these are katepart bugs in my opinion; reassigning.
The same problem exists in KMplayer which can use different video engine(mplayer, phonon) but in all cases playback could be only controlled via mouse.
kate part is now correctly read-only and you won't get again into this mess ;)
