Description Ingo Klöcker 2025-07-19 21:12:12 UTC 
Pressing Ctrl+A in Date field of Exchange Rate/Price Editor should select the full date instead of just the year.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Exchange Rate/Price Editor
2. Press Tab until Date field has focus
3. Press Ctrl+A to select the full date

OBSERVED RESULT
Only the year is selected.

EXPECTED RESULT
The full date is selected.

Pressing Ctrl+A again selects the full date, but that doesn't make sense to me. My use case is that I manually update the price of multiple investments and I want to copy&paste the date so that I don't have to enter day and month separately for each investment.

Improve keyboard handling in date edit widget

Pressing Ctrl+A selects all characters of the date. If only a part of
the date is selected but the text to be pasted is larger, then the
widget is cleared first. Selection using Ctrl and Shift works as
expected and does not switch sections of the date anymore.
FIXED-IN: 5.2.1
