Description angel.tsankov 2010-06-17 15:11:10 UTC
Version:           unspecified
OS:                Linux

Shift+{Return/Enter} does nothing when the shortcuts for the "Insert Smart Newline" action are set to "None".

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set the shortcuts for the "Insert Smart Newline" action to "None";
2. Type Shift+Return.

Actual Results:  
Nothing happens

Expected Results:  
A (non-smart) newline should be inserted

Happens with Kate 4.4.4

actions are strict when it comes to shortcuts. instead we should add a "insert newline" action to make it's shortcuts configurable for the user.

To me, to looks more like shortcuts being strict rather than actions: if not assigned to an action, they do nothing.  With other text editors that I've tried so far, this is exactly the opposite: a shortcut has some action which usually is the most common one on the specific platform; additionally, one can change what the shortcut does by assigning it to an action (from a predefined list).

No matter how strange I find this, it would work for me to assign Shift+Return to "Insert newline".

as a fallback, Angel is probably right. Should be easy to fix.

Shift + Enter and Shift + Return insert newline.

Works with this patch. When Smart Newline shortcut is disabled, the shortcuts insert non-smart newlines.
