In (desktop) Edit mode, hovering over a panel shows a tooltip-like structure showing "Show Panel Configuration". (Same as the context menu entry). After a right-click on the panel, this label changes, and remains different until the user exits Edit mode. On entering Edit mode again, the label resets to the normal text again (until a panel is right-clicked). STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Right-click the desktop, "Enter Edit Mode" 2. In Edit mode, hover over the panel. Verify it shows "Show Panel Configuration" 3. Right-click that panel, then close the context menu with another right click. 4. Hover over the panel until the label appears again. OBSERVED RESULT The label now reads "Show &Panel Configuration" EXPECTED RESULT The label is unchanged from before, displaying "Show Panel Configuration" (i.e. without the Ampersand in front of the word "Panel").

Git commit 0cc0befa7cfe482b389af284070469fea89b1f0c by Tobias Fella, on behalf of Christoph Wolk. Committed on 25/08/2026 at 14:28. Pushed by tfella into branch 'master'. containments/panel: strip mnemonics from tooltip The Panel edit mode tooltip takes its text from the configure internalAction. ContainmentItem may add mnemonic markers to the action text when it's shown in a context menu. This is fine in a context menu where these are handled, but breaks if it's used directly. The tooltip tries to strip the marker with regular expressions, but this broke at some point, and is hard to maintain. We already have machinery that strips this in Kirigami.MnemonicData. Let's use it here as well for simpler and more robust code. M +3 -6 containments/panel/main.qml https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop/-/commit/0cc0befa7cfe482b389af284070469fea89b1f0c
