Description Daniel Esser 2004-06-05 03:38:47 UTC

I use kdewalletmanager to confirm my ICQ password and sometimes I hacked in the wrong password because Iam too hectically. Now you have to hit a few times the backspace key to delete the wrong password (You now think "OMG"! But the password is hidden and I think thats a really bad behavior because you couldn't see what you have to delete)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start any programm which use kdewalletmanager to confirm a password
2.Enter a wrong password (main passw.) and click OK
3.Now enter the correct password and it will fail because kwm adds the new enterd password to the wrong password

Actual Results:  
See details...

Expected Results:  
Clear the password text box after a wrong password was entered or show "*" for 
any char.. (The Security-Systemoptions to show "*" for each entered char. have 
no effect to kdewalletmanager! Is it right?)

Sorry for my bad english! ;)

OK I'am damn stupid! ;) This isn't a bug, after a restart of X, kdewalletmanager now shows the "*". But after entering the wrong password kdewalltetmanager doesn't deltete the edit box. Thats not a bug but it isn't clean, I think.
