Description nandou 2010-12-16 12:31:38 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.2) 
OS:                Linux

It would be nice (and probably easy?) to be able to assign shortcuts keys to custom menu actions. 

I found this need because I'm trying to change the "delete files" behavior, to move to trash and delete after 5 minutes. I made a script, a custom action menu for dolphin, but I would like to associate the action with the DEL key (or other), but I cant find a way...

Thanks 

Reproducible: Didn't try

Thanks for the suggestion. I agree that this would be nice, because it would allow users to customize Dolphin in ways which are not possible at the moment, but unfortunately, it's not easy to implement (see, e.g., bug 323960 comment 5).

Oh this is still not possible? After 10 years, would be such a nice feature. I would like to use this to copy a file full path string with ctrl+shift+c :(

This exists now with CTRL+ALT+C by default and you can change it.

Any news when will it be possible to make shortcuts for services in Dolphin?

If it's at least half-done, we can wait for another half (in year 2032).

Comment 12 flan_suse 2022-03-27 03:26:48 UTC

And over 12 years later...

Comment 13 yellow.cat87355 2023-01-30 21:43:10 UTC

This is a tough pill to swallow moving from Thunar. Hard to believe no one else finds this a necessity.

Would it be possible to reassign an existing built-in shortcut that is not used much to launch another app/script instead and still survive updates?
