Version: 1.13.6 (using KDE 4.6.1) OS: Linux It worked as supposed in kmail with KDE 4.4.x, now pressing right alt + o does not do anything. Rest of polish characters work excellent (except right alt + shift + o - not producing Oacute either). Rest of KDE applications (konqueror, kate) has no problem at all. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: start writing new e-mail using kmail having polish keyboard layout and hit rightalt + o. Actual Results: Nothing happens Expected Results: Nice ó letter entered.
I've got the same problem (Gentoo ~amd64). However, it's not completely true (at least for me) that nothing happens when "rightalt+o" gets pressed. *Some*thing happens then, because the very next key pressed (any key) is eaten. As if it treated "rightalt+o" as a begin of a "keyboard shortcut chord" (maybe it's so, although I reviewed all shortcut lists and didn't find anything like this).
Łukasz, you are right. I can confirm that after hitting "rightalt+o" next key pressed is eaten in my system too. I reviewed kmail shortcut list and found nothing either.
Only happens with kmail ?
This is working with kmail from git-master, it shows a ø
Yes, it happens only with kmail. External application launched from kmail (eg. kaddressbook) work fine. And it seems independent of keyboard layout, I tried many different layouts with the same effect. If the code from the master repository works OK, maybe it's a debug hack left accidentally in the code of 1.13.6 and then removed?
Works as expected in KMail2. The issue will be resolved in kdepim 4.6
