Description Brian Brennan 2006-07-13 07:43:40 UTC

Version:           0.11.3 (using KDE KDE 3.5.3)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

I changed the shortcut key for closing chat windows from CTRL+W to Escape, and while Escape now closes windows, CTRL+W still does as well. For me, this is quite undesirable -- emacs keybindings have spoiled me into thinking I can use CTRL+W to delete the previous word. Now I'm punished by losing my conversation every time I make a typo!

You can fix (workaround?) this by changing the KDE-wide shortcut in control centre (look under "Application shortcuts"). That said, the behaviour is a bit confusing.

I can reproduce, but i don't know jow to fix that.

We just do
>  tabClose = KStdAction::close ( this, SLOT(slotChatClosed()), coll, "tabs_close" );

a problem in KStdAction ?

This is fixed in KDE4 so I'm closing this bug.
