Too many & symbols in names of dictionary groups

[embar-]

Somewhere between 1.5.0rc2.git.20161226T19173 and 1.5.0rc2+git.20170314T174738 GoldenDict started to add too many & symbols in dictionary groups. See attachment.

Can't reproduce. Where did the first "&" come from? I don't see it in the input field on your video.

[embar-]

I never entered & symbol. I just enter "Some name" as group name. After confirming name, I see m letter with underline in tab. I only close dialog and in list of groups I started to see "So&me name".

[Abs62]

Hm. GD never add ampersands to group names voluntarily.

[embar-]

I guess It adds ampersand for keyboard shortcut while displaying names in titles. But unintentionally somehow it remains permanent for name.

[Abs62]

GD don't add any shortcuts to tabs in groups dialog. GD even don't allow to add it manually, ampersands are considered as part of group name but not shortcut prefix.

Regarding openSUSE Linux builds, I can reproduce in
goldendict-1.5.0-rc2+git.20170316T210955 with Qt 5.6.1
goldendict-1.5.0-rc2+git.20170601T224956 with Qt 5.8.0
But I can NOT reproduce in
goldendict-1.5.0rc2.git.20161226T19173 with Qt 4.8.6
goldendict-1.5.dev-20170204.1 with Qt 4.8.6

Now I tested builds for Windows, these are not affected:
GoldenDict-1.5.0-RC2-85-g473cb2b_(QT_562) 2017-03-31
GoldenDict-1.5.0-RC2-85-g473cb2b_(QT_486) 2017-03-31

Maybe this bug related with Qt5 in Linux only?..

[Abs62]

I have tried now last git version under Ubuntu with Qt 5.4.2 - not reproduced.

For testing, please try https://susestudio.com/a/CttYWz/lietukas-42-1-multilingual (after login, you can download https://susestudio.com/a/CttYWz/lietukas-42-1-multilingual/download/iso to get ISO for using in real machine or in VirtualBox; you can also test via TestDrive in browser by licking https://susestudio.com/a/CttYWz/lietukas-42-1-multilingual/start_testdrive?version=42.1.23 (i.e. without downloading), but in this later case will not have access to internet)- here I can consistently reproduce by these steps:

1. Start GolDendict
2. Press F3
3. Go to tab "Groups". You can see predefined groups. If you press "Rename group" button and simply press OK, it will add & for current group name. If you press OK for whole dialog, it will add & for every/each group name.

Are you using KDE?
See

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=337491

Try to add

[Development]
AutoCheckAccelerators=false

to ~/.config/kdeglobals

Yes, I use KDE Plasma 5.8 desktop and editing ~/.config/kdeglobals helped!

As you can see, this bug has recently been fixed upstream in KDE. Users of older versions of KDE (such as e.g. in debian buster) need to apply the fix.
