Hi, It's me again.
Some recent Trinity update seems to have stripped my ability to
go "split screen" with konqueror. When I click on [View] -- then
"View Mode" , I get a dropdown with ONLY
TDEHTML
Embedded Advanced Text Editor
I have NO IDEA how long ago I last used the split screen option
in konqueror --- maybe 1-2 weeks ago.
The keyboard shortcuts CTL-SHIFT-L and CTL-SHIFT-T _do_ work.
$ konqueror --version
Qt: 3.5.0
TDE: R14.0.6 [DEVELOPMENT]
Konqueror: R14.0.5
$ cat `locate /etc/*release*`
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=16.04

Is it just me -- my system? Or, do I have some sort of bit rot that
would also explain my earlier "Lost ability to sftp via konqueror"?
Thanks!

What happens when you click on the "Window" menu? Do you see a couple
of "Split view" options at the top? That's where they've always been on
my
system.

Yikes! Yes, the split-screen options are there.
I COULD SWEAR I've always found them under [View].
Well, As usual I never pass up a chance to embarrass myself in public.
I guess we all know where the "bit rot" is located.
Thanks you for your quick reply, dep!

Did you try a full reinstall of Konqueror [tdio(sp)?, ???] ?
$ apt install --reinstall {package name}
That's fixed packages for me in the past (as well as usually fixing 'kept
back' packages).
Best,
Michael
PS: Here, I always forget what this command is, so I saved it to my cheat
sheet file...
$ dpkg -S /opt/trinity/bin/konqueror

Hi
I've always just right clicked the status bar on all the versions of Konqueror
to get the 'split' menu
Give that a try.

Just adding my 2 cents here.
I just tried this (clicking on status bar), and get various ways of splitting
screen, all of which work fine without a hitch. I practically never use this
feature, but, for what it's worth, there it is.
By the way, I'm running Devuan Jessie with Trinity R14.0.6.

OK. I apologize for starting this whole mess! :-)
I have re-programmed my brain to use [Window] ,
and I have put the additional icon on the Tool Bar (Thanks, Leslie(?)) ,
and I have learned to right click on the Status Bar (Thanks, Lou).
I'll try not to disturb the group again for awhile. :-)
Truly, there are a Great Bunch of folks here in the Trinity domain.

The original intent was 'split' was something you do with a 'window',
not something that happens within a 'view'.
