Description Andreas Pakulat 2007-12-11 00:07:01 UTC

Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

The shortcut configuration dialog in konsole allows to set emacs style shortcuts, i.e. Ctrl+A, F - hitting Ctrl+A followed by F will trigger the action. However due to the nature of the application this can't work, thus konsole shouldn't allow to do this.

Disabling this can be done by connecting the shortcut-configuration-actions' signal to an own slot instead of KXmlGuiFactory::configureShortcuts() and then calling KXmlGuiFactory::configureShortcuts() using false for the first parameter of the function.

I don't understand this comment, could you clarify.

Comment 2 Andreas Pakulat 2007-12-11 11:16:02 UTC

Ok, I was wrong. As I could change shortcuts in konsole to something like Ctrl+A, F I assumed you don't create the dialog yourself and thus you allow to create such Letter-Shortcuts. However checking the code you do that and you also pass the LetterShortcutsDisallowed flag, so I guess the bug is rather in KShortcutsDialog.

I confirmed with another application that this is indeed not working, reassigning to kdelibs

Still Valid? I don't understand this bug :-(
