what's your point? I fail to see anything unusual here. the selected text is not deleted here. My point is that here the text is deleted. It does not happen with other editors, so I don't think it comes from my system settings. There must be a bug somewhere. Please take this bug seriously. Or do you mean that because you don't see the bug on your computer, it can't exist ? > Please take this bug seriously. > Or do you mean that because you don't see the bug on your computer, it can't > exist ? no one has said that. > - click back to the text area to edit what do you mean by this? click with the mouse in the text area without closing the find dialogue?

Yes. I believe you when you say you can't reproduce it, but believe I can reproduce it all the time.
And it almost f** up a python program I was working on.
How can we go on ? Will I have to make a video of it ?
I just found out another way to trigger this issue, so it is probably not due to the find function. 1. Highlight a piece of text and copy (ctrl-C) 2. Go to another app (Firefox) and paste. 3. The text was cut from Kate! So we have a ctrl-X behaviour where ctrl-X is expected. An alternative : 1. Highlight a piece of text and copy (ctrl-C) 2. Launch another Kwrite process 3. The highlighted text disappeared ! Without doing anything else ! There is something screwed that can lead to serious data loss. What the hell is it ??? > Yes.

Will I have to make a video of it ? again: no one has said they do not believe you. :) you didn't answer my question about what you meant by “click back”.

Go to another app (Firefox) and paste. > 3. The text was cut from Kate! What version of kwrite/kate/kdelibs are you using exactly? I made 2 quick video to illustrate the problem: http://www.phocean.net/wp-content/uploads/kwrite1.mpeg http://www.phocean.net/wp-content/uploads/kwrite2.mpeg Kdelibs 4.3.5-0.1.1 Kwrite Version 4.3.5 (KDE 4.3.5) "release 0" Kate Version 3.3.5 All are shipped with openSUSE 11.2 amd64 (official repo). Ok guys, after searching quite a lot, I found the culprit : skim/scim (for japanese input). After uninstalling it, no more problem. This is certainly not a KDE bug, you can close it. Thanks for looking at it ;) |
