SUMMARY Using the search feature requires first clicking on search, then clicking on the text box. Removing this second step would bring it more in line with other parts of Plasma. However, after clicking on the text box once, the search field will work as normal without the second click, for any app, until you log out. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Dolphin 2. Click Search in the global menu 3. Start typing 4. If it immediately received keystrokes, either log out and back in, or remove and re-add the global menu applet. Then go back to step 1. OBSERVED RESULT Nothing happens until you click on the text box. EXPECTED RESULT Searching starts by typing, without any further clicks. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 41 KDE (on Wayland) KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.7.0 Qt Version: 6.7.2
I can't reproduce this with git master. Can you check again in Plasma 6.3 or later and see if this is still happening? Thanks a lot!
