Bug ID: 433335
Summary: Long key presses no longer work
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.21.0
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Reporter: s...@keemail.me
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
(Apologies if this is not the right category, there are too many categories and
I cannot seem to figure out which is relevant to the bug report).
Ever since the plasma 5.21 upgrade, 'long press key' does not work anymore.
Pre-update, pressing and holding any key on the keyboard would have resulted in
the key press repeating (e.g. If I held backspace, it would keep deleting
characters until I release it). Ever since the update, this does not work at
all.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Upgrade to Plasma 5.21
2. Open any application that requires text editing (e.g. Kate).
3. Press and hold any character on your keyboard.
OBSERVED RESULT
The action is only triggered once.
EXPECTED RESULT
After a delay, it should have kept repeating the key press until I release the
key.
