Add KNotes widget on desktop 2. Copy some file to buffer 3. Paste the file on desktop using Ctrl+V OBSERVED RESULT file://PATH string is inserted in KNotes widget EXPECTED RESULT File is copied on desktop SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu 19.10 KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.66.0 Qt Version: 5.12.4 1908144 1 wbauer1 2020-02-07 06:58:10 +0000 (In reply to Andrey Yashkin from comment #0) > When there exists a KNotes widget on desktop Plasma's notes widget is totally unrelated to KNotes, KNotes doesn't offer a widget to add to the desktop. Changing the product/component appropriately. 1908237 2 nate 2020-02-07 14:26:44 +0000 Confirmed, and this drives me crazy too. 2135242 3 nate 2022-06-27 19:54:15 +0000 *** Bug 455914 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** 2135286 4 me 2022-06-27 22:22:23 +0000 Say HI to QML API, where shortcuts can't be assigned "widget scope". Actions are global only and always ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Maybe the best we could do is temporarily disable those actions completely when notes applet is not focused. 2135542 5 nate 2022-06-28 16:08:04 +0000 Then Paste wouldn't work on the desktop; doesn't seem ideal. There must be a satisfactory way to fix this somehow. 2135966 6 me 2022-06-29 23:39:17 +0000 > Then Paste wouldn't work on the desktop; doesn't seem ideal. There must be a satisfactory way to fix this somehow. What I meant to say is that «Notes» applet's action should be disabled when the «Notes» applet is not focused, so that it (hopefully) would stop overriding window-global set of registered actions. (Not sure if what I'm saying technically makes any sense, or it's just a moonspeak) 2136121 7 nate 2022-06-30 16:12:02 +0000 Yeah, that sounds reasonable. 2138826 8 me 2022-07-13 16:57:17 +0000 I briefly looked into shortcut API. So, normally there are two options to choose a shortcut context from: Application and Window. As the names imply, they work either on a per-window basis, or application-wide. There is no such option to limit them to a particular widget or QML subtree. There is no such thing as a FocusScope analogy. On the other hand, normal regular text fields are common in everyday programs, and they somehow manage to grab their shortcuts only when they are focused. Haven't looked into that yet, but I think something is just a bit over-engineered in this particular applet's implementation. 2212592 9 mrfrh 2023-02-28 16:44:19 +0000 *** Bug 451635 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** 2212593 10 mrfrh 2023-02-28 16:45:49 +0000 According to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=451635 (resolved as duplicate), this does not seem to happen on Wayland.
