Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.6.1) OS: Linux Feature Request: In certain extreme circumstances, like losing keyboard due to bug/issue (happened to me) and no ssh or any remote way of rebooting. In these situation, my only choise was to use kcharmap with the mouse to save debug info (could not, because i could not generate an "enter"), in fact i cannot issue any command line without "enter". I think that it is ok for normal situation. Probably an "edit" "to clipboard with control character" option must be added. I trully needed it a couple of times. Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: open kcharmap, select with the mouse "CARRIAGE RETURN (CR)", then double click it, then press "copy to clipboard", then paste in konsole, nothing. Actual Results: cannot generate a "CARRIAGE RETURN (CR)" with the mouse & kcharmap Expected Results: a way of doing it. Running F15 Alpha, tried that time with F13.
KCharSelect is not an on-screen-keyboard. Use kvkbd, xvkbd, viki, or the Plasma "Keyboard" applet.
In case you are in the same situation again, you can just select the CR character in Konsole, and copy&paste it.
>In case you are in the same situation again, you can just select the CR >character in Konsole, and copy&paste it. it is posible to generate it with console or with kcharmap? i found a workaround for the issue: with kcharmap i generate: ls -l;# and paste it, then i look for some text in kcharmap for example "General Character Properties Block: Basic Latin Unicode category: Letter, Uppercase" and select from the last e form Uppercase but at the end of it it is an enter equivalent. (very funny workaround. but it is enough) >"CharSelect is not an on-screen-keyboard. Use kvkbd, xvkbd, viki, or the Plasma >"Keyboard" applet. You are absolutelly rigth. The plasma-keyboard applet is part of kdebase-workspace, so it is installed by default. Sadly i never noticed it existence... Tried the plasma-keyboard applet, it loads ok, odly i cannot do anything with it. It takes the focus from the app / dialog & clicking keys on it does nothing. (the physical keyboard is still attached)
> Tried the plasma-keyboard applet, [...] i cannot do anything with it. Please report this as a separate bug for Plasma.
