Bug ID: 480902
Summary: Text selection gets removed instantly
Classification: Applications
Product: khelpcenter
Version: 5.8.23084
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kde-doc-english@kde.org
Reporter: nilskemail+...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
It is not possible to select text in the help center except for Ctrl+A. A
selection created by dragging with the mouse is removed as soon as the click is
released, or double/tripple clicking a word to select the word/sentence only
highlights it for a brief moment before becoming deselected right afterwards.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open any page in the help center (e.g. type 'man:bash' in KRunner)
2. Create a text selection
OBSERVED RESULT
The selection gets removed instantly. The copy button in the toolbar lights up
very briefly and the selected content still lands in the middle-click paste
buffer.
EXPECTED RESULT
The selection should stay active until dismissed (by clicking on some other
text).
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Fedora Linux 39
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.10
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.113.0
Qt Version: 5.15.12
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
- Wayland
- (Also tripple clicking seems to select a line instead of a paragraph but that
is only a minor detail and should most likely get its own bug report- please
tell me if I should file on for that)
