Description Moritz Bunkus 2015-08-04 07:42:26 UTC
kcalc 2.13 with Qt 5.5.0 on Arch Linux

No matter which mode is active I cannot trigger multiplication by pressing »*« anymore. I can, however, trigger multiplication by pressing »x«.

In some modes the multiplication button shows an »x«, in others a »*«. The reported behavior is independent of what the button contains, though (meaning that even if the button shows »*« in scientific mode I still have to press »x«).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start kcalc
2. Press »*« and observe nothing happening
3. Press »x« and observe the multiplication button flashing

More information: none of the keys that require shift to be pressed work: * + ( )  I've only found a workaround for * with x, but not for the others.

I can confirm the bug in Fedora 22 with 2.13 with KDE Frameworks 5.12.0
Comment 3 Max Wu 2015-09-14 15:24:57 UTC
I can confirm the bug in Archlinux kcalc (15.08.0)

the "Shift" + "="  which should generate a "+" randomly fails for me too.

Comment 7 Christoph Feck 2015-10-02 02:35:30 UTC
It should be fixed with Qt 5.5.1 (but apparently broke again with Qt 5.6.0), see https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-47122

Kcalc is working as expected on my system with Qt 5.5.1, Kcalc 15.12.1, and frameworks 5.18.0 on Arch Linux
Comment 10 Viorel-Cătălin Răpițeanu 2019-02-12 17:22:25 UTC
I've rechecked this using the master branch of KCalc and all issues mentioned in this ticket are working as expected. Since nobody seen this issue reproduce since Q4 2015, I will closed this as 'RESOLVED'->'WORKSFORME'.
Comment 11 paulr 2019-02-13 09:40:53 UTC
Working as expected, KCalc version 17.12.3, Plasma 5.12.6,
frameworks 5.44.0, Qt 5.9.5
