Description Sebastian 2009-01-21 20:21:31 UTC

Version:           4.196 (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

When I change the shortcut for focus the searchbar to Ctrl+K like in Firefox via the menu Settings > Shortcuts everything is fine. But when restarting Konqueror this setting is lost and the default one is set again. I tried this issue several times and it is always the same.

Comment 1 Felix Leimbach 2009-04-05 21:28:04 UTC

This bug is still present in Konqueror 4.2.2.
On a related note: Wouldn't Ctrl+K/Ctrl+E make a great default shortcut for the searchbar? I really missed that one.
Note: In Firefox Ctrl+K is the default and Ctrl+E also works. The latter is the most useful to remember since it works also in IE. If Konqueror had Ctrl+E as (secondary if need be) shortcut we'd have a real cross-platform shortcut 8-)

Would be a great idea I think. Shouldn't be to complicated to learn a new shortcut and it would really be great to use every browser intuitivly.

By the way - shortcut saving still doesn't work yet. I would think that the problem isn't related to Konqueror, rather to KDE or QT or something like that, but all other apps I tested can be configured fine.

Does someone else have this problem?

I just closed the similar bug 214186, same questions here:
1) are you on kubuntu?
2) does it work with KDE 4.5?
3) If not, please check if
    <Action shortcut="Ctrl+S; Ctrl+K" name="focus_search_bar"/>
gets written to ~/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/kpartplugins/searchbar.rc
and reopen the bug.

It works for me.

Ignore question 1, bug 201448 answered it (the answer is no).
