Version: (using KDE 4.0.3) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux * It is not possible to assign a shortcut to the view modes 'single page', 'facing pages' and 'overview'. In addition the shortcut ctrl-v which is assigned to the menu entry view-modes does not work. * Furthermore, if I assign the shortcut shift+> (on my German Keyboard, the > comes with a shift) to any function, using this shortcut has no effect, while this worked perfectly for example in kdvi. It seems to me that almost no shortcut that involves shift+(special character) is working. I have tried shift+! , shift+§ and shift+$ . The latter is probably most interesting, because it is one of the few special characters that are at the same position (above the 4) at the German and US-Keyboard. Special characters without shift work and shift with ordinary characters (like shift-f, shift-a, ...) also do work * Finally I would suggest that all menu-related key-bindings like alt-f-a for 'save as' should still work when the menu is hidden. I cannot imagine any reason (apart from probably a difficulty to realize it) that people might want those key-bindings not to work any longer. Even more sophisticated (but not as necessary) one could (when the menu is hidden) make it appear as soon as one presses <alt>, and make it disappear again, as soon as a menu entry was chosen.
Okular does anything in regard to those, all of them are kdelibs related problems. a) is a KSelectAction b) cannot comment on that c) I remember it was fixed long ago
With kdelibs-4.5 and 4.6, I just set a shortcut for "Single Page", quit, restarted okular, works. This gets saved into $KDEHOME/share/apps/okular/part.rc. Must be the same fix as the one which fixed bug 181519. Please reopen if you still have the bug with kdelibs >= 4.5.
