Version: (using KDE 4.0.5) Installed from: SuSE RPMs Hi, Please will you guys assign Save-all the shortcut ctrl-shift-s? For the following reasons: 1. No shortcut is defined for save-all, and I imagine it is a reasonably common operation. I certainly use it a lot. 2. Ctrl-shift-s is unused. 3. It is a sensible shortcut by analogy with ctrl-s. 4. Visual Studio uses that shortcut, ensuring greater consistency across IDEs. Thanks.
The last part of 1. and point 4. are no sensible reasons :) Anyway, I don't see a particular problem to have a shortcut for that action, we're currently discussing a possible default shortcut scheme, so the actual shortcut might change...
Why do you need this ? KDevelop already saves all files before compiling.
Andreas: 1. Of course I don't know how often other people use it. But it does them no harm to have an unused short-cut for something they don't use. 4. Even if you don't use Visual Studio, some of us have to and it is nice not to have to remember two sets of shortcuts. This is a relatively minor one - the Build/Debug/Run F- shortcuts are more annoying. Every IDE seems to use a different combination! In that case however I think Microsoft's aren't very good. Amilcar: No need to be so defensive! I like to save all the files I've edited every now and then in case the changes are lost, e.g. power cut, KDevelop crashes, computer freezes for some reason. You're probably going to say "autosave!" or something. Well, whatever. I just like to use it. It's a sensible shortcut, and there is no disadvantage to using it. Btw, as a precedent for sensible shortcuts see free software's use of ctrl-shift-z for undo rather than the harder to use and less logical ctrl-y used by everyone else.
Tim, thanks for explaining why you need it, it now makes sense to me. I was just asking because I never need that.
