Description: Calc, when the compose key (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compose_key) has been pressed, will directly start editing a cell on single-click. Reproduce: It's not clear this is desired behavior—this occurs even long periods after compose key has been struck but not used. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Press «compose» key on keyboard (or bind to an alternate key and use that), but don't press any further key—leave OS waiting for 2nd/3rd keystroke to compose the character. 2. Single-click any cell in calc from an idle (but not read-only) state. Actual Results: Calc enters edit mode right away, navigating away by further click on another cell results in cell contents cleared. Expected Results: Editing a cell would require a double click, clicking outside the cell would *NOT* clear the contents—pending character from before-the-fact should not clear cell contents not explicitly edited by user. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes OpenGL enabled: Yes Additional Info: Held the compose event until getting a further keystroke, e.g. if compose character is pending, wait for the '/' and 'c' keystrikes to make the ¢ (cent) mark, for example, and don't enter edit until complete character is received. At least don't interpret a keystrike from 10 minutes earlier as input upon clicking a cell.
To make sure I got the key right, I customised it like in the instructions here: https://userbase.kde.org/Tutorials/ComposeKey I could not reproduce your problem. After testing with kf5, gtk3 and x11 UI backends, I noticed that only gtk3 showed an effect when I pressed the compose key. It went into edit mode in the focused cell and showed some indicator, underline and dot. Please copy and paste here the contents of your Help - About. This allows us to know more about your system.
