Nope. That is exactly the confusion this patch is fixing. The checkbox was originally added, by whomever created the Konqueror search bar, to allow users to select or mark their preferred shortcuts that would appear in the search bar's drop down box. Otherwise, there were too many shortcuts to show there. Additionally, the shortcuts that are marked preferred are now used in application context menus to provide users the options to do quick searches. Anyhow, when the same type of confusion as yours arose the first time and people opened a bug report about it, I thought I could resolve the issue by adding a checkbox, "Use selected shortcuts only" (now renamed to "Use preferred shortcuts only"), to allow behavior one expected from a checkbox appearing in front of an item on a list. Unfortunately and in hind sight very obviously that did not help at all as is evident from the bug reports listed above. Hence the change to resolve the issue once and for all. I even changed the "Whats This" help into "Tool Tips" to provide quick feedback to the user as to the purpose of those checkboxes. - Dawit ----------------------------------------------------------- This is an automatically generated e-mail.
