Description Rolf Eike Beer 2009-12-22 12:42:39 UTC
Version:           1.13.0 (using 4.3.85 (KDE 4.3.85 (KDE 4.4 Beta2)) "release 3", KDE:KDE4:UNSTABLE:Desktop / openSUSE_11.2)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.31.5-0.1-desktop

When I mark a mail in the list of mails in a folder I can't select all mails with Ctrl-A anymore, instead the complete text of the currently selected mail is selected. This worked in 4.3.

Typical usecase: mark all mails in spam folder and kick them or mark everything in a specific folder and then do something like "mark as read".

I think it's just the shortcut that changed, we now have shortcuts for "Select All Text" and "Select All Messages".
I think for all messages, it is Ctrl+Alt+A.
Comment 2 Rolf Eike Beer 2009-12-22 21:19:23 UTC
At least that's what my configuration says, yes. But it doesn't work either.

Use Ctrl+Shift+A as shortcut, Alt doesn't work for some reason.

Neither ctrl-shift-a nor ctrl-alt-a work for me.

SVN commit 1066552 by tmcguire:

Turns out ctrl+shift+a conflicts in Kontact...

New shortcuts:
Use Ctrl+A for select all messages
Use Ctrl+T for select all text

It looks like "mark all messages" can't be undone? When I use the new shortcuts and press Ctrl-A all messages get selected. But clicking on any message will not unselect all others as it would work with any other selection.

Yes. I don't know why, yet.
Comment 10 Thomas McGuire 2009-12-28 12:33:29 UTC
See bug 216693 for the problem that select all can't be undone.
