Bug ID: 375207
Summary: bring back the historylist (downarrow) for better
mouse (keyboardless) usability
Product: krunner
Version: 5.8.2
Platform: Debian testing
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: k...@privat.broulik.de
Reporter: alt.bo-btg0...@cool.fr.nf
Target Milestone: ---
Since the downarrow-historylist was removed, usability suffered.
With the downarrow to click, one could re-run an old entry, such as "kdesudo
dolphin" without letting go of the mouse.
Without that downarrow-button to click with the mouse, one is forced to leave
mouse, hit "K" on the keyboard, then return to mouse to launch the command.
Continuous mouse-operation, without use of the keyboard, is more desirable and
faster, and was possible before.
This mode of op. is significantly worse, in terms of usability, than in older
versions of krunner.
There seems to be no advantage in removing the downarrow-button.
https://userbase.kde.org/Plasma/Krunner currently shows the screenshot from the
good old days, with downarrow button to the left of the "?"-button. Maybe
downversioninng of krunner will help to get it back.
