Description Marko Käning 2013-03-09 09:46:44 UTC
When trying to scroll down the lists of contributing authors or other people in the about dialog of  any KDE application it turns out that the slider will scroll down with mouse wheel or by dragging it using the mouse, but the text position in the QTextEdit does not change accordingly.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open About dialog 
2. Click on Authors or "Thanks To" tab
3. Use mouse to scroll down the text lists

Actual Results:  
Text does not scroll


Expected Results:  
Text should scroll accordingly

kdelibs 4.11.4 through homebrew doesn't have this issue, I remember I also had this issue before in old versions. I guess it's already fixed in new versions.

Hmmm, I am running KDE 4.12.2 and still see this odd behaviour.

So, perhaps it's not a KDE issue, but rather an issue of the underlying Qt 4.8.5?

Which Qt-version are you running on your HB install?

A snapshot from 4.8.6 branch:

That might explain things! :-)

OK, I'll try to have a look whether this could be built alternatively.

Thanks for the info!!!

Herewith I verify that the newly on MacPorts available qt4-mac 4.8.6 does not show the scroll problem anymore.
