Bug ID: 522456
Summary: Cannot perform hold state of keyboard inputs through
TV remote and Presentation remote buttons
Classification: Applications
Product: kdeconnect
Version First unspecified
Reported In:
Platform: Android
OS: Android 13.x
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR

DESCRIPTION
Holding a button for remote keyboard inputs like Up, Down, Left, Right, Escape,
Enter, Page Up and Page Down does not hold input on a remote device.
This prevents functionality of closing a single app in Plasma Bigscreen through
Tasks screen. To close the app on Bigscreen, user needs to hold Enter key for
few moments until app is closed. However, with KDE Connect, this is not
possible since TV remote input buttons do not have "hold" state when pressed,
but not yet released.

Devin Lin (Assignee) has suggested to file a bug report for KDE Connect for
issue about holding enter button on KDE Connect.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
For any device:
1. Pair any device with Android KDE Connect app.
2. Use Presentation Remote buttons (Left and Right, should represent Page Up
and Page Down), or use TV remote (Up, Down, Left, Right, Enter, Escape) by
holding one of them.
For device with Plasma Bigscreen:
1. Pair a device with Plasma Bigscreen with Android KDE Connect app.
2. Open any app that cannot be closed with Escape button.
3. Open Home menu (might not be possible from KDE Connect device, check for
workaround: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=522227 )
4. Select Tasks from the menu and then select an app to close.
5. Hold Enter button on KDE Connect TV remote screen.
OBSERVED RESULT
For any device:
Holding a button are not making any changes in behavior until they are released
to perform an input.
For device with Plasma Bigscreen:
Holding Enter button does no action until released, where it switches to that
app's window.
EXPECTED RESULT
For any device:
Holding a button perform a held state for its specific keyboard input.
For device with Plasma Bigscreen:
Holding Enter button closes the app after few moments.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 6.7.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.27.0
Qt Version: 6.11.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This does not apply to Pointer button, but it may apply to Left and Right mouse
buttons, since they also don't seem to behave like they have a holding state
either then their buttons are held.
