[Bug 726550] New: Kcalc Cannot Be Launched Using the Calculator Button On The Keyboard
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=726550 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=726550#c0 Summary: Kcalc Cannot Be Launched Using the Calculator Button On The Keyboard Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.1 Version: RC 1 Platform: PC OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Workspace AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: malv_star@hotmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:7.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/7.0.1 In previous versions of openSUSE, Kcalc could be launched by pressing the Calculator button present on most modern keyboards. In 12.1 RC1 however, this no longer appears to be the case. Editing KMenu shows that no keyboard shortcut is assigned to Kcalc, however even assigning the launch key manually and saving the edited menu still does not result in Kcalc being launched when the keyboard Calculator button is pressed. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Log in to KDE 2. Press the "Calculator" button on your keyboard (if you have one) 3. Nothing happens 4. Edit KMenu and assign the Calculator button to KCalc as a shortcut 5. Save changes 6. Press the "Calculator" button on your keyboard. Actual Results: Nothing happens. Expected Results: KCalc starts, and further presses of the "Calculator" button do not start additional instances of KCalc. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

According to the comments above, seems this issue should be fixed right? can we close it?
I only left this bug open because it also exists in 12.1 and at the time I submitted the fixed package there was still the discussion if there would be an online update to KDE 4.7.X for 12.1. I wasn't sure if this fix should be included. Cartman only accepted my srq to KDS after ~ 1 month. As I don't think this bug is woth an online update on its own, let's close it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This bug has been fixed upstream but is still present in 13.1 M2. Could we get the fix for this in?

Actually it was noted that instead of waiting for a fix to be pushed through QT, they would supply a patch to kdelibs. You can find it linked here:
https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdelibs/repository/revisions/1c7ae18ef...
You'll also note that somebody complained about the following:
The shortcut trigger still says Launch(1), however the fix made pressing the calculator key work to trigger the event anyway.
That patch is part of the openSUSE packages since 12.2 (even longer in KDE:Distro:Factory) and it works fine here. And even you confirmed it is working in comment#22. So you just want the Calculator key to be assign to launch KCalc by default, right?
But the response was:
No, "Launch (1)" is how Qt handle this key. If you check the link that I posted before you'll see that Qt::Key_Calculator is not mapped in X11 and you must use Qt::Key_Launch1 instead. If you still want it to display "Calculator" please open a ticket on Qt tracker since I don't think that this is a job to KDE do.
It's just that Qt calls the key "Launch (1)" because "Calculator" is reserved for something else. That provoked this KDE bug in the first place, but other than that it is only cosmetical (i.e. the key is shown as "Launch (1)" in the keyboard shortcut dialog) and cannot easily be "fixed" because of compatibility. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
