Bug ID: 512188
Summary: Sticky Notes: Text typed after an auto-detected URL
inherits unremovable link formatting
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version First 6.5.2
Reported In:
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Notes widget
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
When the Sticky Notes widget automatically converts pasted URLs into clickable
links, any text typed immediately after the link becomes part of that link.
Some formatting (underline) can be removed, but the link/color formatting
cannot, because the widget provides no way to remove hyperlink formatting.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a new Sticky Note on the desktop.
2. Paste a URL into it (e.g. https://example.com).
3. Remove the automatically inserted space character, begin typing normal text
immediately after the URL.
4. Observe that the new text inherits the hyperlink formatting (blue,
underlined, clickable).
5. Type a space and continue typing more text.
6. Select the non-URL text and try to remove the formatting using available
buttons (bold/italic/underline/strike).
OBSERVED RESULT
- The non-URL text becomes part of the hyperlink.
- Underline can be removed with the underline button, but URL and color
formatting cannot be removed.
- There is no UI option to remove hyperlink formatting from text, so the
affected text stays blue and clickable.
EXPECTED RESULT
- Only the pasted URL should be treated as a hyperlink. Text typed after it
should not automatically inherit link formatting.
- Alternatively, there should be a way to remove hyperlink (URL) formatting
from any selected text.
