Description William Skellenger 2013-10-20 14:00:05 UTC
I'm trying to set shortcuts in Krusader. I can set them, and they work fine for the current session. When I restart, however, the shortcuts are gone.

After looking at the Krusader source, I figured out that KShortcuts is a standard KDE service. So, I tried changing some shortcut settings in Konsole to see what would happen.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go into Konsole, Settings --> Configure Shortcuts
2. Change "About KDE" to have CTRL+ALT+A shortcut.
3. Click OK.
4. Try CTRL+ALT+A --> About dialog appears.
5. Close Konsole. Open Konsole again.
6. Try CTRL+ALT+A --> About dialog appears. Great so far.
7. Go to Settings --> Configure Shortcuts, Click "Details >>"
8. Create a new scheme with "New", call it "Foo" (no quotes)
9. Change "About KDE" to have CTRL+ALT+A shortcut
10. Click OK
11. Try CTRL+ALT+A --> About dialog appears
12. Close Konsole. Open Konsole again.
13. Try CTRL+ALT+A --> Nothing happens <--- BUG starts here
14. Settings --> Configure Shortcuts
15. There are no shortcuts configured for anything.
16. Click "Details >>" and notice that scheme "Foo" is allegedly loaded
17. Load scheme Default and then Load scheme Foo again --> "About KDE" shortcut is restored


Expected Results:  
Expect shortcut scheme to load properly.

In summary, you can only change shortcuts for the default scheme and have them persist across sessions. Krusader seems to have a different issue where the 'import shortcuts' feature is also broken.

This is still reproducible with Frameworks 5.37 (!) on Arch, with Qt 5.9.1.

Also reported by a KDevelop user on KDE Neon.

It makes alternate shortcut schemes very inconvenient to use.
