how to set a shortcut to open the k menu?
April 5, 2012 2 Comments
the standard launcher doesn’t allow to use qdbus to show itself , but it allows to set a shortcut
but if you plan yo use this in a script you could try to use this:
xdotool key alt+F1
the only way to get something of similar to what you have done with dcop it’s this : using lancelot laucher and creating a shortcuts with this command
qdbus org.kde.lancelot /Lancelot show 0 0
or
qdbus org.kde.lancelot /MainApplication org.kde.lancelot.App.show 0 0
? If the default shortcut (Alt+F1) does not fit your needs, why not simply change it? Right-click the K icon to get to the settings.
thank you! i have forgotten about this feature for the kde laucher
