Screenshot of the portal-native KF5 file save dialog used with simple-scan
SUMMARY
The FileChooser portal API for 'accept_label' parameter says:
> accept_label s
>
> The label for the accept button. Mnemonic underlines are allowed.
However, it seems like xdg-desktop-portal-kde does not properly handle this,
but shows literal underscores instead of applying the mnemonics.
This can be seen e.g. when using simple-scan (a Gtk application). For the
"Save" button, the text "_Save" is shown instead (s. attached screenshot).
I'll also attach a small sample Gtk application to reproduce.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. compile the attached sample Gtk application that sets the accept label to
"S_ave & Done & Finished":
gcc -g -O0 -o main_set_save_label $(shell pkg-config --cflags gtk+-3.0)
main_set_save_label.cpp $(shell pkg-config --libs gtk+-3.0)
2. run it, using native KF5 file chooser via portal:
GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 ./main_set_save_label
3. check the text shown for the confirmation button
4. Press Alt to see what character is being used for the mnemonic for the
confirmation button
5. Press Alt+A to confirm (since the mnemonic was supposed to be set for the
"a" in the label).
OBSERVED RESULT
at step 3: The text is "S_ave Done Finished" (with an extra underscore after
the 's' and the literal ampersands having gone missing.)
at step 4: The "S" is being underlined to indicate that it is the mnemonic.
at step 5: An "a" is inserted in the file name box.
EXPECTED RESULT
at step 3: The text should be is "Save & Done & Finished" (without any extra
underscore and containing 2 literal '&'s)
at step 4: The "a" should be underlined to indicate that it is the mnemonic.
at step 5: The dialog should close.
