            Bug ID: 461794
           Summary: selected string sometimes not copied in entirety
    Classification: Applications
           Product: konsole
           Version: master
          Platform: Archlinux
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: copy-paste
          Assignee: konsole-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: kde at mentalfossa.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY

Sometimes, when I copy selected text, only the beginning of the text is copied.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use `locate` to search for files
2. Select a path
3. Copy with ctrl+shift+c
4. Paste somewhere with ctrl+shift+v or check clipboard manager

OBSERVED RESULT

Most frequently, I have noticed it when copying paths after using `find` or
`locate`, but it has occurred with other strings.  When it happens, usually,
the file name is incomplete.  Immediately reselecting and recopying results in
the same incomplete path being copied.  But recently I noticed, after running a
different command and retrying the copy/paste, the entire path copied normally.

The clipboard history shows that incomplete text was previously copied.  No
other program has shown this problem, so I doubt it's caused by the clipboard
manager.

EXPECTED RESULT

The entire selection should be copied.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: 6.0.8
KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.99.0
Qt Version: 5.15.7

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

This problem has occurred intermittently for many consecutive versions/builds,
possibly going back to Konsole 21.x.  Still occurs with Konsole 22.08.3. 
Occurs with new builds of master.

I've been using starship to change the command prompt, but this problem
occurred before I started using it.

My profile has unlimited scrolling, "Highlight the lines coming into view", and
"Reflow lines when terminal resizes".  I have not tried changing these settings
to see if there is any difference.  However, this has happened early in
sessions, when there has been little output, with lines that do not wrap, and
when the window had not been resized.
