Description Marcus Harrison 2011-12-04 13:33:41 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.2) 
OS:                Linux

Widgets in the System Tray with shortcuts assigned forget their shortcuts after Plasma has been shut down (or when Plasma has been started again). For example, if the Battery widget is given the Battery function key on my keyboard, it works - but after restarting Plasma (or logging out, restarting the computer etc.), the shortcut no longer works and I have to re-set it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Right-click --> Configure any widget in the System Tray (Network Manager widget, Battery Monitor or New Device Notifier are all in the tray by default)
2. Click, "Shortcut"
3. Set a shortcut for the widget, click, "OK"
4. Test the shortcut
5. Restart plasma-*
6. Test the shortcut again

Actual Results:  
The shortcut works before restarting plasma, but after restarting plasma the shortcut is reset to None

Expected Results:  
The shortcuts are remembered across plasma sessions

OS: Linux (i686) release 3.0.0-14-generic
Compiler: gcc

I have the same problem here, on 4.6.5, with a global keyboard shortcut assigned for Klipper. After every logout the shortcut resets to default...

In what KDE release will this fix get into ?

Ok i got it, 4.8.0

Any chance for a backport to 4.7.X ?
