Version: 1.12.4 (using 4.3.4 (KDE 4.3.4), Debian packages) Compiler: cc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.32-3.slh.3-sidux-686 When I reply to a message, I use to mark (select, highlight) the section I refer to, so it is quoted right away. Or I want to copy and paste a quote to cite it. Recently, this gots harder and harder. I have to wait at least 5s before after pressing down the left mouse butting, before I move the mouse arrow towards the end of the section I want to select. Otherwise, the start of the block would be an arbitrary postion (where ever the mouse arrow position happens to be when the event manager registers this mouse click). I am quite aware that there is a lot of background actions, but mouse events should be linked to the corresponding mouse position in the moment the button is pressed. I just checked again: Looks like the mouse drag(?) event is only triggered when the mouse position changes. Possibly my threshold is too high here? Or is it a Qt issue that mouse moving is only registered when the arrow is quite away from its initial position?
it is faster, now, but still hard to select lines from their beginning.
Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report. KMail2 was released in 2011, and the entire code base went through significant changes. We are currently in the process of porting to Qt5 and KF5. It is unlikely that these bugs are still valid in KMail2. We welcome you to try out KMail 2 with the KDE 4.14 release and give your feedback.
