Hm, in the function below, doCopyToObject() writes this key to the desktop file, so I am not sure either if your approach is correct. Thanks for the investigation. I suggest to create a review request for group 'plasma' at https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/ I'm hesitant to do that, since this is probably not the proper fix, just a quick workaround. It would be nice if someone with a deeper insight could look into the actual cause of the problem. As announced in https://pointieststick.com/2023/07/26/what-we-plan-to-remove-in-plasma-6/ and https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Plasma_6#Removals, I'm afraid KHotKeys has reached end-of-life in Plasma 6. Accordingly, all bug reports and feature requests for it must be closed now. Most of what KHotKeys could do can already be done with the newer KGlobalAccel system in Plasma 6. A few features such as mouse gestures and triggering conditions based on changes to window states are not yet implemented in the new system. These will be added in the future if and when resources materialize for them, and/or when a kind soul submits patches to implement them! :) Meanwhile, the 3rd-party "Mouse Actions" app (https://github.com/jersou/mouse-actions) may be usable for implementing your own mouse gestures again. Thanks for your understanding, everyone. |
Created attachment 102783 [details] Use !settings->isDaemonDisabled() to set the daemon checkbox While input actions work just fine, it seems the "Start the Input Actions daemon on login" checkbox doesn't reflect the actual configuration. My khotkeysrc has Disabled=false in [Main]. However, in the gui the option appears as the daemon is disabled, i.e. the checkbox is unchecked. Further investigation shows the config is loaded properly, it's never used in GlobalSettingsWidget::doCopyFromObject, which instead does: ui.enabled->setChecked(file.readEntry("X-KDE-Kded-autoload", false)); At least on my install this always returns false, since the .desktop doesn't have this key. Enclosed please find a quick fix, which uses !settings->isDaemonDisabled() to set the checkbox. I'm unsure, however, if that's the proper fix. Here are some system specs: kde-frameworks 5.29.0 Qt 5.6.2 xcb platform
