Bug ID: 448695
Summary: block mode tabspace indents selection
Product: kate
Version: 20.04.2
Platform: openSUSE RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: application
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: ad...@joeysun.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
When a line of columns is selected in block mode, pressing the tabspace-button
indents the whole selection instead of inserting a tabspace character.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. have a block of text in the editor control - possibly with a gap consisting
of a space character you want to replace with a tabstop
2. enter block mode
3. select a line of columns by pressing shift+down
4. remove gap with del or backspace
5. press tab button to insert tabstop char
OBSERVED RESULT
the whole selection indents (as it would outside of block mode)
EXPECTED RESULT
tabstop char should be inserted into every row at the cursor position
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: 5.3.18-59.37-preempt x86_64
KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.6
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.76.0
Qt Version: 5.12.7
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
copying a tabstop char into the clipboard and pasting it into the gap works as
a workaround, but should not be the way to do it. indenting by use of the
tabstop button should probably be deactivated in block mode.
