Confirmed. Let's call this a bug in kaddressbook. Kontact owns the Ctrl+1, Ctrl+2... shortcuts forever. KAddressbook needs to change (or remove) these shortcuts. Suppose I should fix this, since it was me that introduced these shortcuts. Are Ctrl+Shift+number or Ctrl+Alt+number currently assigned in Kontact? No. Kontact just has F1 for help, the Ctrl+N keys and Shift+F1 for 'What's this' Git commit 06ca53e1397f783a3db59a8b179fa4efa3199e94 by Jonathan Marten. Committed on 24/11/2012 at 22:02. Pushed by marten into branch 'master'. Use CTRL+SHIFT+n for view modes, CTRL+n already used in Kontact FIXED-IN:4.10 M +3 -3 kaddressbook/mainwidget.cpp http://commits.kde.org/kdepim/06ca53e1397f783a3db59a8b179fa4efa3199e94 |
Contacts uses Ctrl+{1,2,3} to adjust the number of columns but those conflict with the global Ctrl+N keyboard shortcuts kontact uses in order to change the displayed application. That means that if you switch to contacts you cant move with the keyboard to eg. kmail and get a "The key sequence 'Ctrl+2' is ambiguous. Use 'Configure Shortcuts' from the 'Settings' menu to solve the ambiguity. No action will be triggered." message as Ctrl+2 is assigned to both "Two columns" for Contacts, as well as Mail for kontact. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open kontact 2. Press Ctrl+3 to switch to Contacts. 3. Press any of the Ctrl+1, Ctrl+2 or Ctrl+3 keyboard combinations. 4. Get conflicting shortcut informational message
