Description Fernando M. Muniz 2025-05-16 02:47:47 UTC
KRunner is not showing when I type on the numpad, but it shows when I type the numbers atop the letters.

The numpad numbers works only after KRunner's bar is showing.

> the numbers atop the letters
What does this mean?

Can you please write longer bug reports in the future, with more information, Steps To Reproduce, etc.? I assume you're trying to invoke KRunner by typing on the desktop, but I have to guess at this since it wasn't specified in the original description of the issue. :) 

A video might be helpful here, too.

Thanks.

Does anything change if you toggle num lock?

No.

Ok, thanks. I don't have any keyboards with numberpads, so I'm afraid I can't attempt to reproduce the issue. I'll leave this for someone else.

I can reproduce on my Fedora KDE 42 device, Plasma 6.3.5.
