I can confirm that this happens, both when closing "find" and when switching documents. It also seems to happen whenever the text pane gets focus. To reproduce, select any text in the text pane, then: -switch to another task and back to Kate by alt-tabbing -switch to another task and back to Kate by clicking anywhere (as far as I've tried) on the Kate window -click on any other pane within Kate (terminal, filesystem browser, documents, find, find in files, ...) and click back on the text pane The text will be deleted as soon as the text pane gets focus.
It doesn't delete the text when you exit from Kate's menus or dialog boxes. Also, if you select text and switch to another pane within Kate, none of the above actions will delete the selected text, but switching back to the text pane after all that will. As far as versions go: Kate reports "Version 3.1.0" and "Using KDE 4.1.00 (KDE 4.1.0)" Synaptic reports "kate-kde4" version "4:4.1.0-0ubuntu1~hardy1~ppa2" (using "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu/ hardy main") I also remember the selected text being deleted when alt-tabbing back to Kate during various KDE 4.0 releases and prereleases. -- closing search bar deletes highlighted text https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/254268 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
