SUMMARY *** I used ctrl+shift key to symlink a file from a Dolphin (/Krusader) tab to another (of shift to move). Now I can only copy: no choice with keys. *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Dolphin and split it in two tabs 2. Try to symlink a file from a tab to another pressing ctrl+shift 3. You'are no more able to do that: the file is only copied OBSERVED RESULT ctrl+shift doesn't work EXPECTED RESULT ctrl+shift should work SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: KDE neon 6.0 KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.2 Kernel Version: 6.5.0-21-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 2 × Intel® Core™ i3-7100 CPU @ 3.90GHz Memory: 7,6 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® HD Graphics 630 Manufacturer: MSI Product Name: MS-7A74 System Version: 1.0
Can't reproduce on arch, dolphin 24.02, wayland.
My release is indeed that... This new behavior is after upgrading to plasma 6 in KDE Neon. Today I noticed that with shift I am asked (with a pop-up) to choose among copy, move or symlink, but pressing ctrl+shift the file is simply *moved*, without any question.
I can confirm also in othe PC with Plasma 6 ctrl+shift doesn't work. It seems work in virtualbox, because the host system can supply the help, so to say. But try on a standalone machine, you will see.
Also in another Pc width plasma 6, I have ctrl+shift not working (even Dolphin says that that is the right keys combination to make a symlink). Only krusader in root mode and after a few seconds can create a symlink with ctrl+shift. In shortcuts (neither of Dolphin nor the global system) I cannot see "create symlink" (to try another keys).
(In reply to fanzhuyifan from comment #1) > Can't reproduce on arch, dolphin 24.02, wayland. I guess that the problem is not Dolphin, but Plasma 6, isn't it?
Was testing on plasma 6 dev build. Do you have something like an IME that has ctrl+shift as a shortcut?
What is a IME? On the same PC I noticed that Plasma 6 with x11 doesn't have this bug. And I think that I have the same custom shortcuts (only the graphical server protocol is different). This bug is only with Plasma 6 + Wayland. At least in 3 my PC.
on closer inspection, I noticed that also with plasma 5.27.10 in Wayland ctrl+shift doesn't work. So the problem seems Wayland, not Plasma 6.
For some reason can reproduce today -- holding shift and holding ctrl also don't work. Arch linux, git source build, wayland.
This is not a priority. But it would be interesting to find if there is some application that causes this problem. I.g. recently I noticed that my persistent problems with power commands, were caused by espanso: if I close (stop) espanso power commands, such as logout or reboot, work still. Maybe something also with ctrl+shift ? More than 10 years ago I had a problem with shift key (no more working, nowhere, write was very difficult): resolved deleting clementine (tha audio player, yes) config: incredible but true.
