Hi All,
I think that there is a problem while expanding sélection of files in Konqueror. Ctrl+"left"click add the clicked file, Shift+"left"click expends the sélection with all the files between the previously clicked file to the clicked file.
It should work like in the mails section of the main KMail window, should'nt it? So, is it settable feature or a bug?
Thank you Patrick

Hello, the behaviour you describe seems normal to me ? At least, it has always been this way in all file managers I've used so far ...
What difference with kmail do you see exactly ?

--------------------------------------------------------------------- Merci François,
For me too, it has always been so, from Mac128 upto windows XP. Why does not it work so in my TDE-F17 Box???
I suppose that XOrg is involved, again. Because when I select a text and then press Ctrl+C, the text is well copied in the clipboard, but deselected! Not in Firefox, of course. I mentioned too that at one moment (finalizing installation / configuration ?), the clipboard was treated the same way it was in the very initial KDE version: unpracticable! This has disapeared after reboot, and I've never seen it since.
An other (XOrg?) problem: after a new window has been open, I have to click 2 times on the kxkb (supposed) icon in the taskbar to change the flag to american, then back to spanish, so that the keyboard is properly interpreted as Spanish. Note that the toggeling rule (Règle de basculement) was "Global". I try now to configure it to have only the spanish option, and will tell you later if it changed anything.
Thank you and cheers Patrick

--------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi all,
It does not work! When there is only the spanish possibility as keyboard layout, I have to click on the icone to get spanish keyboard.
When kxkb is not used, the keyboard is allways américan. American keyboard is nice but I need metacharacters! Is there a way to get metacaracters with us keyboard?
Cheers Patrick

You should be able to set a layout-switch hotkey through xkb directly. The options used to be under Keyboard Layout -> Xkb Options in the Control Center, or you can call setxkbmap from the command line. You can also set a compose key this way, which will let you type characters with accents and other diacritics using a US keyboard layout.
For instance, my system has Scroll Lock set as a compose key, so if I want to type n-tilde (ñ), the corresponding key sequence is Scroll Lock, ~, n. The corresponding setxkbmap command would be: setxkbmap -option compose:sclk

--------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi E., and thank you,
This looks good. I just wonder if an unused key is available, here. "Scroll Lock" is used to toggle a hard devise switching keyboard, mouse and screen from one computer to another. Only Wikipedia knows what are the keys used by KDE3/TDE :-) I'll try when some of the pebbles in the shoe will be away…
Cheers, Patrick

Other options the GUI makes available for compose keys are: Caps Lock, either CTRL, Alt, or Win key, Pause, PrnScr, or greater than/less than. Most of these, along with several two-key combinations, are also available for layout switching. I expect you'll be able to find something that suits.
Good luck with the other problems.
