Description Amit Shah 2009-01-14 07:46:49 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.1.3)
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

The clear text button is located to the extreme right of the text field. For left-to-right scripts (most of the scripts), the instinct is to click near the area where we want to edit text. To clear all the text, one has to move the mouse cursor all the way to the right of the screen and then click on it.

The position should be near the start of the text field, which is left for L-to-R scripts and right for R-to-L scripts.
