Bug ID: 461794
Summary: selected string sometimes not copied in entirety
Classification: Applications
Product: konsole
Version: master
Platform: Archlinux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: copy-paste
Assignee: konsole-de...@kde.org
Reporter: k...@mentalfossa.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Sometimes, when I copy selected text, only the beginning of the text is copied.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use `locate` to search for files
2. Select a path
3. Copy with ctrl+shift+c
4. Paste somewhere with ctrl+shift+v or check clipboard manager
OBSERVED RESULT
Most frequently, I have noticed it when copying paths after using `find` or
`locate`, but it has occurred with other strings. When it happens, usually,
the file name is incomplete. Immediately reselecting and recopying results in
the same incomplete path being copied. But recently I noticed, after running a
different command and retrying the copy/paste, the entire path copied normally.
The clipboard history shows that incomplete text was previously copied. No
other program has shown this problem, so I doubt it's caused by the clipboard
manager.
EXPECTED RESULT
The entire selection should be copied.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: 6.0.8
KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.99.0
Qt Version: 5.15.7
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This problem has occurred intermittently for many consecutive versions/builds,
possibly going back to Konsole 21.x. Still occurs with Konsole 22.08.3.
Occurs with new builds of master.
I've been using starship to change the command prompt, but this problem
occurred before I started using it.
My profile has unlimited scrolling, "Highlight the lines coming into view", and
"Reflow lines when terminal resizes". I have not tried changing these settings
to see if there is any difference. However, this has happened early in
sessions, when there has been little output, with lines that do not wrap, and
when the window had not been resized.
