Screenshot showing garbled history output
SUMMARY
If you click the left mouse button in the history pane, subsequent calculations
are not inserted cleanly at the top anymore, but intermingled with old
calculations.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Ensure history pane is enabled.
2. Calculate 1+2 (calculation shows up in history)
3. Left-click somewhere below "1 + 2 = 3" in the history pane.
4. Calculate 3*4
OBSERVED RESULT
History now shows one line: "3 x 4 = 121 + 2 = 3"
EXPECTED RESULT
History should show two separate lines: "3 x 4 = 12" and "1 + 2 = 3".
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu 22.04
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.7
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.92.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The bad effect is delayed and might therefore not be associated with the click
(Bug 452061, closed with status RESOLVED WORKSFORME, is probably an example of
this bug).
Possible reasons why the user might click in the pane: 1) Wanting to focus the
entire window (click-to-focus) and choosing the history pane as it's a large
and seemingly passive area. 2) Wanting to select some older result for copy &
paste. 3) Exploring possibly hidden functionality in the history pane (that's
how I ran into it).
