Description virgilg 2003-04-20 05:59:28 UTC
Version:           3.1 (using KDE 3.1.1)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.21-pre6

Hi,

I don't know if this qualifies as a bug or is better as a wishlist, but here we go: Double-click a contact entry; click the Details tab. Click the birthday date (or the anniversary) drop-down. Set the birthday date (e.g. 10/01/74). Click the down arrow again (note that the birthday gets 'reset' to the current date). Click outside the calendar. The 'new' birthday is the current date. Everything is the same for the anniversary field.

In the shortcuts category, note that on the General tab 'Organisation' has O underlined (same as the OK button). On the Details tab, the same goes for 'Office'. Also on the Details tab, Details and 'Department' share the same shortcut letter, D.

Hope this helps,

Virgil

Hi Virgil, 
 
I can' reproduce the bug with the date picker here with CVS HEAD, so I guess 
it got fixed during the last weeks. 
 
Concerning the shortcuts: we use a class, that tries to create the shortcuts 
automatically. It's not perfect but makes the translators life a lot easier... 
We'll try to have as less clashes as possible, but we can't avoid all I fear. 
 
Ciao, 
Tobias

Excellent, I'd say. Rreeealy excellent.

That's cool, using an automated shortcut creator :-)
   
On another level, I thought about it long and hard... I am 
a good C programmer, a decent C++ programmer, but I know 
nothing about QT or Linux programming in general (I am not 
familiar with how ./configure or make work). I would be 
interested in programming for KDE, but I don't know where 
to start. I was thinking that maybe a good place to do so 
is that instead of bugging you guys with the (minor) bugs 
I find, I'd try to fix them first on my own, just to get 
the feel of it. So, are there any tutorials on really 
basic stuff, like how to create a window, add menus, write 
help files and so on? Or, is there a very simple KDE 
application you know of so that I can study its skeleton 
and figure out how stuff is done?

Saluti,
Virgil

The development of the old KAddressBook will be discontinued for KDE 4.4.
Since the new application has the same name, but a completly new code base we close all bug reports against the old version and ask the submitters to resend there reports against the new product.
