Move Selection Down/Up or Scroll Left/Right does not work in Linux

[crazycliffy]

Open a log file, then shrink the window. Use keyboard to press "Up/Down" "Left/Right". Expected the selection or the scrolling to work but it does not in Linux version of klogg. The problem is not reproducible in Windows.

Version: klogg-22.06.0.1289-Linux-amd64-oracle7.rpm Platform: Scientific Linux 7.7

Here is a snippet of the verbose level=7 log. I was expecting an entry for "AbstractLogView::moveSelection delta=1" but it is not present for the linux build.

I also made sure I had the klogg keyboard shortcut preferences are default.

primary Up/Down maps to secondary J/K primary Left/Right maps to secondary H/L.

binding the shortcut to other keys does not work in Linux, but is OK working in Windows.

This sounds similar to #470, there the shortcuts problem were caused by some incombapitibility between old Qt version and appimage. Which Qt version are you using?

[crazycliffy]

hi @variar , according to the "About Qt", it says it's using 5.11.1. When choosing which packages to install among the "rpm" packaging I selected oracle7. I presume this is for redhat 7. I am not using the AppImage version, since I read in #470 , that requires Qt5.15 and I don't have that installed in our production systems. I am using GNOME under X11.

I have the same issue on ubuntu 18.04.6 LTS (Bionic Beaver) and it is super annoying, it is impossible to use the application, I am using QT Version 5.9.5

I have tested the AppImage and it works

Thanks for your testing efforts! Properly testing all combinations of OS+Qt version is difficult. Looks like there is indeed some incompatibility with older Qt versions even outside of Appimage environment.
