Version: 3.0.0.a4 (using KDE Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources Compiler: gcc version 3.2 OS: Linux (i686) release 2.4.19-4GB In IDEAL mode, when clicking on an error message in the message window (bottom of screen) the editor jumps to the line, where the error is. When the line is somewhere on the same screen (so that only part of the actual editor window has to be refreshed) the content of the message window is falsely copied into the editor window. Scrolling (or refreshing) the editor removes it again (so it's just an update bug).
This is a known bug of Kate (actually, Qt imho). I will have to make a few small changes to gideon to fix it (0ms single-shot timer to the hide() slot) to work around it. This is on my to-do list. Yes I know, it's not a clean solution, but trolltech won't be making any changes soon. The other option is to reduce Kate's performance by increasing redrawing (ie. not use QWidget::scroll()) :( *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 53392 ***
