Description em2cEYhqFfLon 2019-07-25 00:20:56 UTC
Currently I'm using Kate 19.11.70. In shortcut settings, there are shortcuts for:

- Duplicating selected lines up.
- Duplicating selected lines down.

May I ask if you could add new shortcuts for?

- Duplicating selection left.
- Duplicating selection right.

Duplicating selection is a popular feature that a lot of major editors have, such as: Atom, Geany, Sublime Text... For my own use, it is very useful. For others, I think it must be useful, since other editors support it.

Thank you,

Dear user, this wish list item is now closed, as it wasn't touched in the last two years and no contributor stepped up to implement it.

The Kate/KTextEditor team is small and we can just try to keep up with fixing bugs.

Therefore wishes that show no activity for a years or more will be closed from now on to keep at least a bit overview about 'current' wishs of the users.
If you want your feature to be implemented, please step up to provide some patch for it.

If you think it is really needed, you can reopen your request, but keep in mind,
if no new good arguments are made and no people get attracted to help out to implement it,
it will expire in a year again.

We have a nice website https://kate-editor.org that provides all the information needed to contribute, please make use of it.

e.g. see the information at https://kate-editor.org/join-us/ for details

Greetings
Christoph Cullmann
