Bug ID: 443642 Summary: Selection clipboard no longer works with Shift + click Product: frameworks-ktexteditor Version: 5.86.0 Platform: Neon Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: david.hu...@mailbox.org Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY Since today, selecting text with the Shift key no longer populates the selection clipboard, which forces me to use the clipboard with Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V. Since Ctrl+C does not affect the selection clipboard, this makes it difficult to conveniently copy a section of text to multiple locations. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Kate or KDevelop with some long text. 2. Click a point in the text. 3. Clear Klipper. 4. Hold Shift and click another point in the text. OBSERVED RESULT Nothing is copied to any clipboard. Text is just selected. EXPECTED RESULT Selected text is copied to selection clipboard. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: KDE neon 5.22 KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.86.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 Kernel Version: 5.11.0-37-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The click, Shift+click workflow still works in any other application, and many other ways to populate the selection keyboard in KTextEditor still work. This includes: * Select with click-drag-release * Select with click, Shift + navigation keys * Select with double-click or triple-click * Select with double- or triple-click-drag-release But it doesn’t work with: (I can not confirm that these worked before) * Select with Ctrl+A -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
