bug is not 100% reproducible for me, but it happens often. I think this is the pattern: cut only fails if you selected the word by double-click. if you select it char by char with shift+cursor, cut works. okay, it's a Qt bug :-( *** Bug 48683 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Subject: Re: [Issue N7742] cut (CTRL-X, Shift-DEL) does not remove the highlighted text On Tuesday 08 October 2002 13:59, you wrote: > I am unable to reproduce this here.

No, but I've upgraded my qt-copy (Qt3.1beta2) and it still happens with e.g. the signature editor in KMail (which is a simple QTextEdit). I have no clue what's so special about KMail that it doesn't work there :-( You migth want to have a short look at the code (just search for QTextEdit), maybe you find something special: http://webcvs.kde.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/kdenetwork/kmail/signatureconfigurator.cpp?rev=1.4&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup regards Daniel KEdit has the same problem as KMail Subject: Re: [Issue N7742] cut (CTRL-X, Shift-DEL) does not remove the highlighted text On Tuesday, 8 Oct 2002 22:51 Daniel Naber wrote: > On Tuesday 08 October 2002 13:59, you wrote: > > > I am unable to reproduce this here.

If you are able to find under what conditions this happens please report back and I will look into it. best regards Anders Bakken - Trolltech AS, W. Thranes gt. 98, N-0175 Oslo, Norway QTextEdit works - bug flying to kedit (isn't kedit used as internal editor by kmail?) *** Bug 49584 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** No, QTextEdit does not always work, e.g. the KMail signature composer (Configure kamil -> indentites -> modfiy -> signature tag) also shows the problem and it's a QTextEdit. but indeed the QTextEdit in qt's examples/textedit works okay. the bug can only be reproduced with KDE applications when klipper is running. Lubos suspects a KClipboard issue Being worked on. As a workaround (or maybe even solution, who knows), make sure the Klipper utility is configured as 'Separate clipboard and selection' (even if you usually don't run Klipper).

Lubos, thanks for taking care of this. It's not that I wouldn't care, but I
can't do it before I'm home from work.
Cheers

I experience the bug even without klipper running (haven't tried the suggested work around, as the bug does not really annoy me). There was a reason why I noted 'even if you usually don't run Klipper'. It doesn't matter if you run Klipper or not. What matters is the setting (because all apps read this setting and do the syncing themselves). If you can reproduce the bug even after doing as I said, then we have another problem. *** Bug 50251 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Ctrl-X now works even with Klipper option: "Synchronize contents of the clipboard and the selection" I am close to mark this as RESOLVED but since I run CVS HEAD and not RC6 I give you others a chance to retest.
