Bug#1024757: Editor: -key ignored
The root cause of this problem with openscad is this upstream bug in Qt: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-95108 The symptoms are that in some keyboard layouts, the Qt::GroupSwitchModifier is handled incorrectly, causing some keys to not respond correctly in certain applications. This bug was introduced in Qt 5.15.5, and has been fixed in Qt 5.15.7. The bug can be reproduced by temporarily switching layout: setxkbmap -model pc105 -layout de -variant neo and starting the "openscad" program; in the editor, the does not work. I verified that installing libqt5gui5 version 5.15.7+dfsg-1+b1 from experimental fixes the problem. So this bug can be closed when Qt 5.15.7 goes into unstable. - Kristian.

You can try snapshots.debian.org: http://snapshot.debian.org/ The 5.15.6 version entered Unstable on November 29, so something like this should be a recent snapshot that contains the 5.15.4 version: http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20220928T030933Z/ I'll see if I can get a definite confirmation that the QT bug is the root cause, and then probably re-assign this bug to QT. Thanks, - Kristian.

The code only sees KeyRelease events for the key, no key presses, which could explain why the key has no effect. I found this Qt bug report, which could be relevant: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-95108 This bug report mentions: - As seen in your case, the Qt::GroupSwitchModifier is always set. - As a consequence and other non-printing characters do not work. - Apparently introduced in Qt 5.15.5; Unstable has 5.15.6. - The problem seems to depend on the keyboard layout. So some things you could try: 1. Try temporarily setting another keyboard map, eg. plain US layout, and see if it makes the problem go away (the GROUP modifier in the printout, and the non-functional key). I think maybe this command can do it: setxkbmap -model pc105 -layout us 2. See if you can reproduce the problem with the Qt example program "codeeditor", as in the Qt bug. It is available from package qtbase5-examples as /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/examples/widgets/widgets/codeeditor/codeeditor 3. It would be interesting to try to downgrade Qt to some 5.15.4 version and see if that solves the problem. However, I'm not sure how feasible that is, the dependencies around Qt are probably quite complex.

If not, I'll try to think of a way to debug what is eating the KeyPress events before they get into the openscad Editor event handler code. - Kristian.

I did not manage to find a way to reproduce myself. But I found that openscad has some debugging option that may provide additional information. Can you try to run openscad with the --debug option: openscad --debug=scintillaeditor and then reproduce the problem with the ENTER key and note down the output from the openscad program? When I run it, I see output like this: scintillaeditor: KeyPress - modifiers: shift ctrl alt meta keypad group scintillaeditor: KeyPress - modifiers: SHIFT ctrl alt meta keypad group For every key press and key release, it logs the modifiers received with the event. It doesn't log which key was pressed, but you should be able to match key press to output line by looking when the output appears relative to the key-presses. It would be useful to know what is (if any) logged for - A "shift+enter" key press, which inserts a linebreak correctly - An "enter" keypress without shift that is ignored incorrectly - Try using both the normal and numeric-pad enter key - What is logged for another key that works normally (space, letters) This information will hopefully give a clue to why the "enter" key doesn't work on its own. Based on this I can try to build an openscad binary with more detailed debugging printouts to hopefully track down the root cause of the issue. In case this becomes necessary, do you prefer to build openscad yourself from a git branch/patch; or for me to supply a (signed) temporary .deb with the extra debugging? - Kristian.

I managed to run the latest openscad package in unstable. I did not see the problem, the key worked fine to insert a line break. Anything special in your setup you can suggest is needed to reproduce the problem? - Kristian.

Thanks for the report! I had some problems running openscad in my unstable/sid environment to try to reproduce this. I will try to solve this, but meanwhile... > -key is working everywhere else. I believe openscad is using the scintilla widget for its editor. It looks like packages such as juffed and octave are also using scintilla. Can you test if the same problem occurs in one of the packages `juffed` and `octave`, eg. by temporarily installing them? This would give a hint to whether the problem is something general with scintilla, or specific to openscad. (`octave --force-gui` opens octave with the editor). For me, juffed and octave do not have the enter/shift+enter issue in latest unstable/sid. The new 2021.01-5+b2 should be a rebuild-only version for the libicu72 transition, there are no changes to openscad sources. But that doesn't necessarily mean the problem is not with the openscad package, it could be some interaction with the dependencies or something. > The openscad 2021.01 Appimage also works as expected. Useful info; this suggests it's not solely a problem with your environment, eg. window manager or some such. - Kristian.
