Description justin 2022-11-08 23:50:02 UTC

SUMMARY
 
Using the latest Appimage, I cannot enter text in the captions fields without the keyboard shortcuts overriding my typing. For instance, using the letter t  or the space bar, moves me to tag entry or navigates me through pictures instead of entering text in the text box.

Removing the navigation keyboard shortcuts renders the keystrokes unusable.  For instance, removing the Backspace action means that I cannot backspace to remove text that has been entered, no text manipulation occurs at all.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install latest appimage
2. Select photo
3. Navigate to Right toolbar, Captions
4. Attempt to enter caption in any textbox.

OBSERVED RESULT

Keyboard shortcut commands take over and force navigation instead of text being entered in box

EXPECTED RESULT

Text showing up in box.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

Linux/KDE Plasma:  Manjaro
KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.98.0
Qt Version: 5.15.6

Also, GNOME 42.4 on Wayland.

Please try with the current digiKam 7.9.0 pre-release AppImage bundle available here :

https://files.kde.org/digikam/

This one is now compiled under Xbuntu 18.04 and use last Qt 5.15.7

I can't reproduce the behavior with any AppImage. You don't happen to have face detection running? In this case, there were indeed strange effects in the title and caption text boxes.

It wasn't running at the time, but face detection is indeed something we use routinely.  Both of the installs I tested were new, and connected to an external MySQL.
