Description Iyán Méndez Veiga 2021-01-22 16:37:32 UTC
SUMMARY

Some keys should be repeated when the key is held, despite the new option in Input devices -> Keyboard -> Hardware -> When a key is held.

For example, del, supr for sure should be repeated. I also think the arrows should be repeated and maybe tab and enter, as well.

As mentioned here (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=431903#c2), if the purpose is to mimic the behavior of Android, iOS, macOS, etc. In all these OS, certain keys when held are repeated.

So it would be fine (and actually a great feature) to see á, à, â, etc. when holding a but I would still expect to be able to delete quickly by keeping held del.
