Yes i find it but my Plasma is 5.14 and it is missing

Which Distribution do you use? Maybe they didn't build Plasma correctly, or some packages are missing in your setup.

FWIW: please always state your distribution and exact Plasma version (which you can find in the Info Centre)

I use Debian 10 Buster but i also tested Fedora 30, Kubuntu 19.04, Kde Neon and Arch all these distribution have this a bug., KDE Neon version is 5.16.3 Live and Debian 10 is 5.14

AFAIK, not a feature implemented with the libinput version of the mouse KCM.

So it is an unfortunate regression due to the switch from evdev to libinput. There is no information if this function will come back.

Apparently some Neon versions have not made that switch completely and still use evdev.

Update: a quick investigation by a Plasma dev shows this is not a feature of evdev or libinput but from the kaccess CM, should be reported as bug.

And it is WIP: https://phabricator.kde.org/D22823

This will land in Plasma 5.17.

To restore the feature, copy the following into ~/.config/kaccessrc

Code: Select all

[Mouse]
MK-MaxSpeed=1000
MK-TimeToMax=5000
MKCurve=0
MKDelay=1000
MKInterval=5
MKMaxSpeed=5
MKTimeToMax=1000
MouseKeys=true

Then log out and back into Plasma

Indeed, but 'exposed' by the evdev -> libinput switch where it used to be in the old mouse KCM, and hence went AWOL with the switch as a side effect.

A tad confusing at 1st.....

Thanks for flagging up!

I just merged the patch, so the settings will be back in Plasma 5.17 in System Settings → Accessibility → Mouse Navigation.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
