A fix was implemented so perhaps the recent changes to the search bar have regressed it. I tested this on the master branch, and the issue still exists. A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/merge_requests/1045 Git commit 655763fbc977cc900cc367f1797f752c7b217c71 by Felix Ernst, on behalf of weinan li. Committed on 03/09/2025 at 14:06. Pushed by felixernst into branch 'master'. Search::Bar: Preserve cursor position Prior to this commit editing the search term would sometimes change the cursor position. This commit makes sure the cursor position does not move by itself.

Thank you! |
SUMMARY If you are typing a search query, mistpye, realise your mistake and backspace to correct it. You delete the mistyped character but then find the cursor has jumped to the end of the line. STEPS TO REPRODUCE: 1... Open the search in Dolphin (with a Ctrl-F) 2... Type a search query, realise you've made a mistake, backspace to the error, delete it and... OBSERVED RESULT: The cursor jumps to the end of the line, meaning you have to backspace again to get to where you were... EXPECTED RESULT: The cursor stays where you left it, allowing you to continue to type the correction. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS: KDE Neon Unstable Plasma: 6.4.80 Frameworks: 6.17.0 Qt: 6.9.1 Dolphin: 25.11.70 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: This may be a variation of Bug 494018 which earlier only affected Baloo, this affects all searches, Simple Search as well as Baloo, in the new search interface (currently in Neon Unstable)
