Krunner randomly forces you to backspace-remove text to clear out text Submitted here too: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485375 SUMMARY I have to manually hit backspace to remove text from krunner. expected behavior: it should just clear out text or have it highlighted to allow for "write over" so that the new text I enter wipes out old text. Hard to reproduce, not sure what triggers it because it doesn't happen all the time...but I think its when I highlight text. 1. Highlight some random text from web browser 2. Call krunner 3. Observe behavior 4. esc and call krunner again, and NOW it highlights all the text for overwrite....which should be intended behavior initially. DEMO of the problem: Hard to explain, so here is a vid: https://youtu.be/0WtkuhZGlEs
Confirmed. Bug but of a different kind. krunner doesn't "respect" the keyboard shortcut override when assigned "ctl+ Space" krunner launcher .... it tries to keep the original keyboard shortcut (clipboard contents copy) along w/ the launcher. Hence why it drops the cursor at the end without it being highlighted. Shared w/ upstream.
Closing as won't fix, since the bug is so small, and it can live as a known issue upstream.
