>Summary: Halve Speed Shortcut Actually Doubles The Speed

Initial Comment:
i.e it turns quarter notes into eight notes. i.e. it perform the same action as double speed.

OK, I was about to say this isn't true for me, but then I thought to try
the keyboard shortcut.

With a production build of 1.6.1, if I start with four quarter notes and
Rescale -> Halve or Double then the results as are expected, either four
8th notes or four half notes.

However, if I Ctrl+< or > (shift , or shift ., and I tried with both shift
keys) then both actions double the speed sure enough.

The code for this should be common to all edit views, and it's simple
enough to see that we have done the right thing
(rosegarden/src/gui/general/EditView.cpp:720):

    new KAction(i18n("&Halve Speed"), Key_Less + CTRL, this,
                SLOT(slotHalfSpeed()), actionCollection(),
                "half_speed");

    new KAction(i18n("&Double Speed"), Key_Greater + CTRL, this,
                SLOT(slotDoubleSpeed()), actionCollection(),
                "double_speed");

Looks like KDE is screwing this up.  I have no idea what we might do
differently.

Compare KDE versions, maybe.  I'm on:

Qt: 3.3.7
KDE: 3.5.8
Rosegarden: 1.6.1
