It crossed my mind how to describe it - edge scrolling when a text is selected. One thing I just realized - it's working if you go down and then up and again go down and again go up, etc., but it's slow. It doesn't work in one take down as it should and as it's working on Wayland and in Plasma 5. I just realized what the problem is - when the mouse left the Kate/Kwrite borders, it stops to drag the text but it shouldn't. It's working correctly with Wayland and Plasma 5 X11 and Wayland and there if the mouse is out of the Kate/Kwrite borders but the left mouse button is pressed, it continues to drag the text as it should be and as it's how it is on every other text editor. I decided to try different Kate/Kwrite versions and the problem is there only with the newest 24.02.2. All previous versions are working fine. Hmm, it's not for the version. When I commit a downgrade with different versions for kate and kwrite and the system asks me to remove kate because of the versions incompatibilty, text scrolling is working fine no matter the version. If I don't remove kate during the downgrade process, the bug is there. For now I'll use kwrite only for this bug is real stopper for me. Here's a vide of the WORKING state and how it should be and how it was the last 20-30 years: https://i.imgur.com/IPJzMfU.gif Now the scrolling stops as soos as the cursor left the text editor boundaries and this shoud be fixed. The same issue occurs in my configuration: Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.1.0 Qt Version: 6.7.0 Kernel Version: 6.8.7-arch1-2 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Dolphin version: 24.02.2 Now I decided to try different text editors. The editors I tried were tea-qt, xed, pluma, emacs, sublime text, vim, atom, geany, leafpad, gnome-text editor, helix, libreOffice Writer, OnlyOffice, WPS Office, code, gedit, bluefish, even Notepad++. There's no problem at all with all the editors but with kate/kwrite. I can confirm, Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.2.0 Qt Version: 6.7.1 Kernel Version: 6.9.2-arch1-1 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor Memory: 125.7 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX 6500 XT Manufacturer: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd. Product Name: MS-7D54 System Version: 1.0 Plasma 6.1.3 - there's no difference. The problem is fixes. |
