Trying to make a reproducable test case: I use kmail as a Kontact plugin. 1. The problem happens if I open the composer and the focus is automatically in the To: field. Under the To: field is the CC: edit field situated. In this situation I cannot get out of the To: field at all with the focus than clicking somewhere outside of To: 2. Thus I thought to click into the CC: field, the focus changes to CC: 3. Pressing <Backspace> in the CC: field the CC: disappears and I get back into the To: field. 4. Now the auto-complete pop-up with the matching addresses opens in To:, but immediately with all available addresses, not after pressing a letter key with the matching ones (that's wrong, too). The behavior of focusing and auto-complete in the KMail composer is totally weird in common. I've this problem too: the autocompletition popup is never displayed. (tested with current trunk) Finex: Is that related at all??? I can't reproduce what is described in comment #1, neither with kmail 1.10.3 nor with trunk (r884939). When I try to compose a new mail, only the To: field is available at first. And when I reply to a mail, both To: and CC: exist, but the focus is by default in the message body editor. Also, pressing <TAB> in To: works fine and jumps to the Select button which is on the right of the To: field. I can not reproduce it also in svn trunk r888112. What I see in the composer window in the tab sequence, there is a hidden widget between from: and to: in the default composer window.

What happens here: Composing a new mail: CC: field is not visible. Focus is in the To: field (which is fine so far). Pressing the first key, the auto-complete pops up only for less than a second, closes immediately and the CC: field appears automatically (which appears to be wrong). Replying to a mail: The CC: field is shown immediately, the focus is in the message body (which is fine so far). Clicking in the CC: field the auto-complete pops up only for less than a second, closes immediately and a further CC: field appears below. What can be the reason: a packaging problem, a bad Qt patch, a bad configuration? I've updated to latest trunk, and now autocompletition seems working (with the same Qt version of some days ago) What I haven't said until now: I reported this to Suse/Novell, also: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=448642 I've had the same problem before, but it seems to work now for me, too in KDE 4.2 beta (Suse RPMs, KDE: 4.1.87 (KDE 4.1.87 (KDE 4.2 >= 20090101)) "release 3.1", KMail: 1.10.92). Auto-completion works for me now in KDE 4.1.96. Also commented by SuSE in https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=448642 : "Should be fixed by r895893 in branch/kdelibs but I can't commit it right now due to OBS breakage." |
