SUMMARY STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. open a text document with Kate, for example containing the line "one two three" 2. select a word in the middle of the line (in our example, select "two") 3. use the mouse to drag the selected word OBSERVED RESULT The text that follows the mouse when dragging should only be the selected word, but instead I have the whole end of the line that follows the mouse (in our example, "two three" follows the mouse when it should be only "two"). Dropping the text only copies the selected text ("two"), as it should be. I also observed this behavior in KWrite , but not in other applications. EXPECTED RESULT Only the selected text should follow the mouse ("two" in the example) SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Fedora Linux 37 KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.104.0 Qt Version: 5.15.8 Kernel Version: 6.2.9-200.fc37.x86_64 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® Graphics
Can not reproduce with the mentioned steps
Works for me, too, version 5.104.0, Wayland, too.
I reproduced it on another machine, but this time only the upper 1/3 of the letters in the "three" is displayed. I tried to change the scaling to 100% (from 125%), it didn't change anything. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Kubuntu 22.04 KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.7 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.92.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 Kernel Version: 5.15.0-69-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 5800H with Radeon Graphics
Please share a video of what you are trying to do.
Here is a video showing the effect of the bug on the second machine (upper 1/3 of the "three" showing after "two"): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1K-cLzAX_6uEnb8IE7IEOKNBe03uyKcZW/view
