Description Alejandro Moreno Calvo 2016-01-09 16:55:19 UTC

The shift+delete shortcut is assigned to function as an alternate shortcut to cutting.
Shift+delete is a standard shortcut across many applications for permanently deleting a file, i.e. bypassing the trash.
In many applications the user receives and error telling her that the shortcut is ambiguous.

Problem come from 2001 as you can see in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=347373#c2

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open gwenview
2. Try to permanently delete a file using Shift + Del


Actual Results:  
You receives and error telling her that the shortcut is ambiguous.

Expected Results:  
Permanently delete a file

The problem come from this commit https://quickgit.kde.org/?p=kdelibs.git&a=commitdiff&h=3a7bc675a

Thanks for reporting. Since you mentioned Gwenview, I'm closing this as duplicate number 31 of bug 377880 even though you reported this against Frameworks.

Apparently the general consensus (looking at who is writing actual patches) is to fix this in every affected application, so please feel to reopen against a specific application if this still happens for you.
