Changing keyboard shortcuts

Postby Fibonacci on Sun Feb 05, 2012 9:34 pm

Hello.

I've just moved to Xfce from Gnome3, and I'm still learning how to get around. One thing I haven't found is how to change most keyboard shortcuts.
Sure, there are five shortcuts I can change on Settings manager → Keyboard → Shortcuts. But most of the shortcuts aren't configurable there – e.g. minimising all windows seems to be hard-bound to Ctrl+Alt+D, and opening a terminal seems to be hard-bound to Ctrl+Alt+T.

Are those shortcuts changeable? If so, how?

Thanks in advance.

Did you figure out?

been awhile with no answer...

I believe most of the system wide shortcuts (not app shorttcuts) like min/max switch workspace ect. are listed and changable under the Window Manager settings (keyboard tab).
If they are listed right click on one want to edit then at popup hit keys you want to use as shourtcut.

Although I think you can't add any new ones not listed their already. :( although you can add shortcuts in the keyboard setting.
