--- Comment #5 from RJVB <rjvber...@gmail.com> --- Yeah, that was my null hypothesis too, but I was kind of hoping it'd be wrong. This irks me, I cannot help but feel that it ought to be possible to tweak the "incriminated" QML function so that it doesn't trigger the bug. I'd tinker with that, but don't have an inkling where even to start. I'm now figuring out a patch that will revert KTextEdit to something that works with Qt 5.7 and 5.8, in hopes it'll be useful for others too. It seems one just has to revert #fc510adaecf1dc83416eaf4392925ee4f3c5a1e0 and then #878797830dbd3b29bd5dcd8241c17ea20fb6914e ... crossing fingers, toes and eyes they'll keep applying (mostly) cleanly until I get to update to Qt 5.9 . -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
