Bug ID: 435878 Summary: Krunner ignores accents/dead keys when launched from the desktop Product: krunner Version: 5.21.4 Platform: Other OS: Other Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: alexander.loh...@gmx.de Reporter: kde.milr...@8shield.net CC: plasma-b...@kde.org Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY Some special keys do not activate krunner, so they are lost during the search STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Set the language to pt-br (maybe it happens with other languages too) 2. On the desktop, search for "ÁREA" OBSERVED RESULT The accent key will be ignored, and the text in krunner will just be "AREA". This will give completely different results than expected. AREA: https://i.imgur.com/NhLkGl0.png ÁREA: https://i.imgur.com/qmhTmtS.png EXPECTED RESULT Maybe the search should be less "rigid" and ignore those accents? That is, show the same result as "ÁREA" for "AREA". Also: I saw that there are already some patches intended to add fuzzy search to plasma, so maybe that would solve this? Or allow these "dead keys" to activate krunner, since pressing them does not display the program window SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS KDE Plasma Version: 5.21.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.81.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 Kernel Version: 5.11.15-arch1-2 OS Type: 64-bit Graphics Platform: X11 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
