Version 4.0.0.250370 (Gpg4win-5.0.0-beta145):
tested with Version 4.0.0.250370 (Gpg4win-5.0.0-beta145) on Windows, works!
with version 4.0.0.250370 (Gpg4win-5.0.0-beta145), Kleopatra from Friday.
We have to talk about the workflows in the different variations. This needs to be simplified further.
I looked with alexk at the suggestion from ikloecker https://dev.gnupg.org/T7091#185587
We would modify it a bit to:
Fri, Mar 7
Tested with version 4.0.0.250370 (Gpg4win-5.0.0-beta125)
and Yubikey:
Checked with version 4.0.0.250370 (Gpg4win-5.0.0-beta125):
tested with version 4.0.0.250370 (Gpg4win-5.0.0-beta125): no pop-ups
works, Version 4.0.0.250370 (Gpg4win-5.0.0-beta125)
Version 4.0.0.250370 (Gpg4win-5.0.0-beta125):
I think "not certified" is ok if several UIDs with different certification states exist.

Sounds like the animation causes/relies on a deferred destruction. Do we/KF6 delete the popup manually?
Version 4.0.0.250370 (Gpg4win-5.0.0-beta125):
Works as described with Version 4.0.0.250370 (Gpg4win-5.0.0-beta125):
Making some progress on understanding this:
Wed, Mar 5
When opening the notepad in Kleopatra, open it in a new (non modal) window.
This has the advantage that you can to open several notepads.
Kleopatra has currently only two views for the main window: "Certificates" and "Notepad". Using a separate window for the notepad removes necessity for the the "Certificate" button in the icon bar, as well as the corresponding entry in the "View" menu.
That would also make Kleopatra more homogeneous and cleaner.
It is KF6.9.0 in Gpg4win-5.0.0-beta125
The formatted display of the symmetric passphrase is configurable: gpg-agent.conf option pinentry-formatted-passphrase
Ok, the behavior is different depending on if
Oh, then I mistakenly assumed that this behavior is the same in Gpg4win and GnuPG-VSD…
Then this seems to be by design although it does not make sense IMHO to handle this aspect differently between 4win und VSD.
I can find no difference between e.g. gpg4win-4.3.0 and 5.0-beta here:
- The window gets smaller when entering a password in both versions
- there is no whitespace between characters in the old version either
