Description Pozsgay Máté 2022-06-08 12:03:30 UTC 
SUMMARY
There is a strange/unexpected behavior of the "Last Used Views" function. Making a document selection by mouse doesn't trigger the active document switch upon the box is closed by releasing the CTRL key unless the whole line is selected.
This is probably an easy fix. I'm not familiar with QT, but probably there is a flag for that table component to select the whole line using mouse selection.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open multiple document in Kate
2. Invoke "Last Used Views" function using keyboard shortcut
3. Select the document by clicking it with mouse

OBSERVED RESULT
Cell selected, document not switched

EXPECTED RESULT
Should change the active document at click, or at least upon the CTRL is released.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.94.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Workaround: Making a whole line selection using the mouse (or cursor keys afterwards) triggers the document switch.
