Bug ID: 514160
Summary: Unable to move text cursor with arrow keys and enter
key instead types seemingly random character
Classification: I don't know
Product: kde
Version First unspecified
Reported In:
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When using arrow keys to move the text cursor in a text box, the text cursor
does not move. It can still be moved by an entire word by holding control,
however normal movement does not do anything. When pressing enter, it instead
types a random character, which is usually d, n, m, s, newline, or backspace
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open any editable text using KDE Plasma
2. Type enough text for the cursor to be able to move and hit any arrow key
3. Hit enter
OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens when using arrow keys and enter prints a random character
EXPECTED RESULT
Arrow keys move the text cursor in their respective direction (up arrow key
moves text cursor up, right arrow key moves text cursor right, down arrow key
moves text cursor down, and left arrow key moves text cursor left)
Hitting enter always types a newline, instead of typing a random character
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.21.0
Qt Version: 6.10.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This first started happening when I was editing a text document in Kate. I have
tried restarting the computer, but it did not do anything. I have tried
reinstalling QT (with `sudo pacman -Rdd qt5; sudo pacman -S qt5`) and then
reinstalling KDE Plasma (with `sudo pacman -Rdd plasma; sudo pacman -S plasma`)
however this did not solve the issue.
I have tried going to the shortcut settings and seeing if the text cursor
keybinds have been changed, however said keybinds do not exist.
