KTreeWidgetSearchLine docs say that event() is reimplemented "for internal reaons" and that "API is not affected". However, this re-implementation steals the handling of the Return key from KLineEdit, meaning that the returnPressed() signal will not be emitted when using a KTreeWidgetSearchLine. I think this should be mentioned somewhere, if not a switch provided to disable.
(removing myself from the cc list, as i've nothing to do with that class, i'm author of the proxy search line class, but not this one).
Hi, kdelibs (version 4 and earlier) is no longer maintained since a few years. KDE Frameworks 5 or 6 might already have resolved this bug. If not, please re-open against the matching framework if feasible or against the application that shows the issue. We then can still dispatch it to the right Bugzilla product or component.
