Description richard 2003-06-11 04:41:05 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.2)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
OS:          Linux

The rate at which single clicks are detected seems to be limited by the double click speed. I've always found that when I was clicking something rapidly in KDE it would ignore some clicks; a few days ago I was looking in the mouse configuration and I decided to try lowering the double click interval from 400 ms to around 90, and after that every click was detected.

This should not be happening; there is no reasonable double-click inteval that will allow me to double click and single click rapidly.

I don't know all the places where this happens, but the most recent example, which made me look for an immediate solution, was having to go through a few hundred lines in the KDevelop debugger to get to the right poiont in the execution of my program; maybe regular buttons should handle a double click as two single clicks?

please tell qt-bugs@trolltech.com, it's not KDE specific.

I believe this bug is KDE-specific. Thanks to the new Gideon release, I've noticed 
that the problem only occurs with toolbuttons - after a little testing with QT Designer 
and a KDE application I'm developping, I found that QT seemed to react to every 
click but KDE didn't.
