when I want to launch konsole, I quickly type kons- and press enter. Unless I put a delay between s and enter, KFind will start up instead. There should be some sort of behavior where, upon encountering the Enter action, kickoff will wait for the list to be filtered, and then open the application. The same issue is in KRunner.
Unrelated but also problematic. The kickoff mnemonics for me right now when holding Alt contain (S)leep, and Re(s)tart. How am I supposed to use the one for Restart if Sleep is always captured by S?
also there is currently a bug with the fuzzy search in krunner for plasma 6 users that may be affecting you because kfind disappears from the list as i type “o” on plasma 5
I wonder if it is that bug then. Because essentially nothing happens until after I stop typing right now.
I tried typing Term, but that brings up a Steam game for me. Kons is the one that brings konsole first, but the time it takes to filter causes the topic issue.
I believe I am using American English as well, according to the first entry in Language and Region, this is on KDE 6.5.3 by the way. I feel like I have seen the letters shift around recently. I may take a stab at compiling this and see what I find out.
I just realized that my keyboard layout was in Japanese when those mnemonics were wrong, and in English (US) it is more consistent. Actually, it is now Slee(p) and (R)estart which is a little odd, but at least it works.
I don’t believe it is the same, actually it is interesting, when I type “k” the apps starting with K show up, kfind, kcalc, kwrite, etc. konsole is like 5th. then when I finish typing, I have to wait to press enter until the list filters otherwise wrong app gets launched. I have a MR that seems to fix it, plasma-desktop #3317.
