Hi all,
for some time there has been an annoying issue with the WSJT-X
"Menu->Configurations" features not working correctly on Linux systems
with the KDE desktop (the default desktop on some distributions like
Kubuntu). I have tracked down the cause and have a workaround. I have
added the following to the WSJT-X User Guide FAQ chapter for future
releases:
*
/I am running /WSJT-X/ on Linux using a KDE desktop. Why does
*Menu→Configurations* misbehave?/
The KDE development team have added code to Qt that tries to
automatically add shortcut accelerator keys to all buttons including
pop up menu buttons, this interferes with operation of the
application (many other Qt applications have similar issues with
KDE). Until this is fixed by the KDE team you must disable this
misfeature. Edit the file ~/.config/kdeglobals and add a section
containing the following:
[Development]
AutoCheckAccelerators=false
See https://stackoverflow.com/a/32711483 and
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=337491 for more details.
