Bug ID: 467967
Summary: A double press on "+" will make the right-hand side
panel display a false equation
Classification: Applications
Product: kcalc
Version: 22.12.3
Platform: Debian testing
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: ete...@alum.rit.edu
Reporter: coocoola...@protonmail.ch
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Double pressing on "+" triggers a "*2" operation, which is incorrectly rendered
on the right-hand side panel.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Let's calculate 2+2+3...
1. Press "2", "+", "2", "+", "3", Enter
2. Now let's use the "double plus" shortcut: press "2", "+", "+", "3", Enter
OBSERVED RESULT
The first calculation is correctly rendered as "2 + 2 + 3 = 7"
The second calculation is incorrectly rendered as "2 + 2 + 3 = 5"
EXPECTED RESULT
Two possibilities:
- Either the double press on "+" is handled as a "*2" shortcut and the second
calculation should then be rendered as "2 + 2 + 3 = 7", or
- (my preference) the second press on "+" is just ignored, which would result
in the second calculation being rendered as "2 + 3 = 5"
I prefer the second option, which is just not having a "double plus" shortcut,
because when entering long series of addition terms, I sometimes lose track of
whether I have already pressed "+" after a term, and I would prefer being able
to re-press "+" without risking to have a term counted twice
