--- Comment #9 from funkybom...@gmail.com --- Progress! I have been able to narrow it down considerably. I used KDiff3 to compare my custom kwriterc and the default one. I kept a backup of the original and I started adding my custom sections of the kwriterc one by one to see after which one I would be able to trigger the bug. I was able to reproduce the bug right after I added the following segment to kwriterc: [KTextEditor::Search] Replace History= Search History= <--- This is the culprit I think. Has this been deprecated perhaps? After I triggered the error I tried to delete this segment from kwriterc and to my surprise after I relaunched KWrite the bug persisted. I was able to resolve the bug when I restored my initial backup of kwriterc. I will attach my custom kwriterc just in case it is useful: # my custom settings for KWrite [General] Allow Tab Scrolling=true Auto Hide Tabs=false Close After Last=true Close documents with window=true Cycle To First Tab=true Days Meta Infos=30 Diagnostics Limit=12000 Diff Show Style=0 Elide Tab Text=false Enable Context ToolView=false Expand Tabs=false Modified Notification=false Mouse back button action=0 Mouse forward button action=0 Open New Tab To The Right Of Current=false Output With Date=false Recent File List Entry Count=10 Restore Window Configuration=true SDI Mode=false Save Meta Infos=true Show Full Path in Title=true Show Menu Bar=true Show Status Bar=true Show Symbol In Navigation Bar=true Show Tab Bar=true Show Tabs Close Button=true Show Url Nav Bar=true Show welcome view for new window=true Startup Session=manual Stash new unsaved files=true Stash unsaved file changes=false Tab Double Click New Document=true Tab Middle Click Close Document=true Tabbar Tab Limit=0 [KTextEditor Document] Allow End of Line Detection=true Auto Detect Indent=true Auto Reload If State Is In Version Control=true Auto Save=false Auto Save Interval=0 Auto Save On Focus Out=false BOM=false Backup Local=false Backup Prefix= Backup Remote=false Backup Suffix=~ Camel Cursor=true Encoding=UTF-8 End of Line=0 Indent On Backspace=true Indent On Tab=true Indent On Text Paste=true Indentation Mode=normal Indentation Width=4 Keep Extra Spaces=false Line Length Limit=10000 Newline at End of File=true On-The-Fly Spellcheck=false Overwrite Mode=false PageUp/PageDown Moves Cursor=false Remove Spaces=1 ReplaceTabsDyn=true Show Spaces=0 Show Tabs=true Smart Home=true Swap Directory= Swap File Mode=1 Swap Sync Interval=15 Tab Handling=2 Tab Width=4 Trailing Marker Size=1 Use Editor Config=true Word Wrap=false Word Wrap Column=80 [KTextEditor Renderer] Animate Bracket Matching=false Auto Color Theme Selection=false Color Theme=Funky KWrite theme Line Height Multiplier=1 Show Indentation Lines=true Show Whole Bracket Expression=false Text Font=Noto Sans Mono Medium,10,-1,5,500,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,Regular Text Font Features= Word Wrap Marker=false [KTextEditor View] Allow Mark Menu=true Auto Brackets=false Auto Center Lines=0 Auto Completion=false Auto Completion Preselect First Entry=true Backspace Remove Composed Characters=false Bookmark Menu Sorting=0 Bracket Match Preview=true Chars To Enclose Selection=<>(){}[]'" Default Mark Type=1 Dynamic Word Wrap=true Dynamic Word Wrap Align Indent=80 Dynamic Word Wrap At Static Marker=false Dynamic Word Wrap Indicators=1 Dynamic Wrap not at word boundaries=false Enable Accessibility=true Enable Tab completion=false Enter To Insert Completion=true Fold First Line=false Folding Bar=true Folding Preview=true Icon Bar=false Input Mode=0 Keyword Completion=true Line Modification=true Line Numbers=true Max Clipboard History Entries=3 Maximum Search History Size=0 Mouse Paste At Cursor Position=false Multiple Cursor Modifier=134217728 Persistent Selection=false Scroll Bar Marks=false Scroll Bar Mini Map All=true Scroll Bar Mini Map Width=60 Scroll Bar MiniMap=true Scroll Bar Preview=true Scroll Past End=true Search/Replace Flags=140 Shoe Line Ending Type in Statusbar=false Show Documentation With Completion=true Show File Encoding=true Show Folding Icons On Hover Only=true Show Line Count=false Show Scrollbars=0 Show Statusbar Dictionary=true Show Statusbar Highlighting Mode=true Show Statusbar Input Mode=true Show Statusbar Line Column=true Show Statusbar Tab Settings=true Show Word Count=false Smart Copy Cut=true Statusbar Line Column Compact Mode=true Text Drag And Drop=true User Sets Of Chars To Enclose Selection= Vi Input Mode Steal Keys=false Vi Relative Line Numbers=false Word Completion=true Word Completion Minimal Word Length=3 Word Completion Remove Tail=true [KTextEditor::Search] Replace History= Search History= [MainWindow] 1366x768 screen: Height=507 1366x768 screen: Width=814 1366x768 screen: Window-Maximized=true ToolBarsMovable=Disabled [MainWindow][Toolbar mainToolBar] IconSize=16 [UiSettings] ColorScheme= -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
