keyboard shortcut (solved)

[kapil]

i am running kubuntu karmic on my laptop.
what are the keyboard shortcuts for minimising, restoring, maximising window?
also.. is there any keyboard shortcut for showing desktop?
i did bit search.. but those ubuntu shortcuts wont work on karmic.

Re: keyboard shortcut

Shortcuts are defined here
K -> System Settings -> Keyboard & Mouse -> Global Keyboard Shortcuts
Select KWin in the KDE component combobox
Define whatever shortcut you want for "Maximize Window" "Minimize Window"

Depending on what you mean by "showing desktop"
Select "Plasma Workspace" in the KDE component combo
Look for "Show Dashboard"

Re: keyboard shortcut

thanks.. i found out that i can open the current window menu by pressing 'Alt + f3' just what i wanted..
the alternative of 'Alt + space' in windoze.

but still i could not find the alternative to 'win + d'.. to minimise all windows and show desktop.
i assigned 'meta + d' for show dashboard in plasma workspace as suggested.. but it shows the plasma desktop.. which is not equal to minimising all windows and focussing on desktop..

any workaround plz...
