When creating a New Contact, the "More" flap allows to specify honorific prefixes and suffixes. With these, there are multiple issues: * weird autocompletion behavior (type "abc", becomes "ab=") * white letters on grey background * unique to this dialog. Resemble a button, but behave like an input field, with a button to clear content. * while the label (honorific prefixeS) suggest that multiple strings can be defined, i only managed to put in one. Found in version 4:4.5~20100827.1168757-1maemo1.1169941 .

If its indeed not changeable (which I doubt), these widgets should be removed, as they are of little use in the way they are now. > > * while the label (honorific prefixeS) suggest that multiple strings can be > > defined, i only managed to put in one. > You can enter several prefixes (e.g. 'Prof. Dr.') Well, on N900 with given version I cannot.
There are two kinds of styles we have to deal with on Maemo: the native one (white on black, actually GTK based, ignores most attempts to change it, such as settings QPallete, etc) and our own one (black on white, CSS based, see kdepim/mobile/lib/stylesheet.css). It's most likely the latter that can't handle editable combo boxes properly.
SVN commit 1185448 by vkrause: editable combo boxes don't really work on Maemo5 BUG: 249615 M +6 -0 namepartseditwidget.cpp WebSVN link: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=1185448
Now on maemo they function like input fields, not allowing multiple values. Will re-close if thats the desired behavior. Version 4:4.5~20101013.1185418-1maemo1.1185177.
You tested with an too old version, the fix was committed in revision 1185448. They should behave like combo boxes now.
I can neither edit nor select multiple values with version 4:4.6~20101022.1188351-1maemo1.1187374 . Did I misunderstood what it should do?
Volker, any updates on this issue?
Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years so I will be closing this bug.
