Version: (using KDE 4.4.2) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages When I press Ctrl+B to set a bookmark, a popup comes up with: The key sequence 'Ctrl+B' is ambiguous. Use 'Configure Shortcuts' from the 'Settings' menu to solve the ambiguity. No action will be triggered. I checked the shortcuts in kate and Ctrl+B is only set once (for set bookmark)
As soon as the file system browser is visible this is reproducible.
Created attachment 48534 [details] unsetting this fixes issues with kate i found that ctrl+b (default for add bookmark) and kate conflicts with this default. i'm not sure where else the ctrl+b gets used but unsetting it fixes a bookmarks issue in kate
^^ i was so excited to type that my comment doesn't make sense. what i was trying to say is that the global ctrl+b shortcut for add bookmark, conflicts with kate's ctrl+b for the same feature and shows the "disambiguate" dialog which sends users to a dead-end because there is no second ctrl+b shortcut defined there. it took me awhile to figure this out and i suspect others might get stuck as well.
Hi Migue, I already wrote in comment #1 that the file system browser also uses the ctrl+b shortcut. Maybe you don't see it in the configure shortcuts dialog, but this is simple the problem. Hide the file system browser, and you won't have any problems anymore... Unsetting the shortcut for bookmarks is a workaround if you don't use bookmarks, but it's basically the wrong fix.
