Now that I just FINALLY figured out how to set a new shortcut for konsole, Iām much happier. . . Although I still canāt figure out how to set a new shortcut to switch to the next desktop. I enter it, and it wonāt let me apply. But dammit, I WILL figure it out, or the bug will be fixed.
No matter how many times I deviate from KDE. Like a bug to the light, I always keep coming back.
Perhaps this should be a separate thread, but I assume you are looking under System Settings->Shortcuts->Global Shortcuts->kwin->Search: desktop. Now you have choices. In my setup, I modify Switch to Next Desktop and Switch to Previous Desktop to Meta+Ctrl+{Right/Left} by clicking the āVā dropdown, clicking on the top button, and applying the keys I want to use.
Does this help any? Youāve probably already tried this, but ā¦
I never liked yakuake, but since I do the window tiling, I really prefer konsole. If you want to short cut it, you donāt do it under applications anymore. It took me like 2 weeks to figure that out, and this morning the heavens rejoiced and I now have konsole again.
Yes. When I add custom shortcut for switch one desktop left/right, it will accept it, BUT apply wonāt be available for whatever reason, so I canāt save it. I believe itās a known bug currently.
Interesting. I tried some other combinations. Maybe itās just my choice. . I used to use ctrl+tab for next and ctrl+shift+tab for previous. Those wont save, but if I pick a random combo, it does. Maybe Itās already used somewhere. It also wouldnāt let me use meta+tab and meta+shift+tab for some reason. But ctrl+shift+n is possible. . . Hmm. Iāll look more into it
For the meantime Iām using meta+space and shift+meta+space for next/previous. It actually works great and Iāll probably just keep this. You guys are all incredible. Thereās just too many options with KDE.
Donāt forget that there are similar options for Switch to Desktop Above/ Below, in case you use a stacked desktop layout, e.g., 2x2, 3x3, etc. I use Meta+Ctrl+{right, left, up, down arrows} to navigate my 3x3 layout. Works great and doesnāt conflict with any keybindings in the rest of Plasma or in LibreOffice (where I do most of my work).
