SUMMARY Express buttons set in the Wacom Tablet KCM are set to trigger instantaneously. This means I cannot set a button to stay held as long as I'm holding it. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open the KCM 2. Set Express button 1 to "Space" 3. Try to use the Express button 1 to pan the view in Krita OBSERVED RESULT The Space button immediately presses and releases. xsetwacom should show: xsetwacom set "Wacom BambooFun 6x8 Pad pad" "Button" "8" "key +space " EXPECTED RESULT The Space button immediarely pressed, and remains pressed until I release the Express button. xsetwacom shows: xsetwacom set "Wacom BambooFun 6x8 Pad pad" "Button" "8" "key +space -space " SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: SteamOS 3.6.20 Build: 20241030.1 KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.10 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.115.0 Qt Version: 5.15.12 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I can manually make the fix using xsetwacom, but that's only temporary. The .config/tabletprofilesrc shows: Button1=key space and I can't see any way to configure the KCM to not press/release the key, either in the interface or in the config file. I did notice that modifiers (CTRL, ALT, etc) seem to function as expected. Holding down the express button also holds down the modifier. Ideally, I'd like to see an option in the GUI to allow holding the express button vs instant press/release, and an update to the configuration file to support that.
Thank you for the bug report! However Plasma 3.2.0 is no longer eligible for support or maintenance from KDE; supported versions are 5.27. (LTS), and 6.2 (non-LTS) or newer. Please upgrade to a supported version as soon as your distribution makes it available to you. Plasma is a fast-moving project, and bugs in one version are often fixed in the next one. If you need support for Plasma 3.2.0, please contact your distribution, who bears the responsibility of providing support for older releases that are no longer supported by KDE. If you can reproduce the issue after upgrading to a supported version, feel free to re-open this bug report.
