kglobalshortcutsrc config file
(In reply to Nicolas Fella from comment #1) > Can you please attach your .config/kglobalshortcutsrc? Certainly. I have added it as an attachment now. I noticed that when I set the Dolphin shortcut, an entry gets added to this file with the hotkey; but upon restart, it's no longer there. I also didn't see any reference in it to the extra entries I cannot get rid of. Looks like you're having the same bug as me (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485659) *** Bug 486722 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** UPDATE: It seems that, at some point after KDE 6.0.5, Frameworks 6.2.0 and/or Qt 6.7.0 came out, the issue where my Dolphin shortcut would be forgotten on reboot as been resolved. I tried reassigning it a couple of days ago and it has remained assigned after restarting the system. The other issue (the shortcuts for Waydroid programs that no longer exist and even if I delete the entries, they're back upon restart) is still there, however. Having this same issue but it comes along with the same shortcuts not being able to be removed from kmenu. I'm pretty sure I'm seeing this issue on one of my installs. I've had the shortcut Ctrl+Alt+T configured to launch Konsole but every time I reboot the shortcut gets lost.
When I set the shortcut in the system settings this part gets added to ~/.config/kglobalshortcutsrc:
[services][org.kde.konsole.desktop]
_launch=Ctrl+Alt+T
However on a different computer I do not see the same issue, the shortcut stays where it's supposed to.
Both are running Arch Linux, currently Plasma 6.1.5 with Framewrks 6.6.0 and Qt 6.7.2.
Actually after writing my last comment - and resetting the shortcut after having given up for a bit, after a reboot the shortcut is still here. So at least for me this seems fixed now. Does anybody else here see the same behavior? |
Created attachment 166877 [details] Partial view of the hotkey assignment screen in system settings SUMMARY In the hotkey assignment part of system settings, I had a shortcut to open Dolphin (Meta+E) which stopped working in the new KDE version. If I re-assign it, it works; but after rebooting, the shortcut is lost. Similarly, I had installed Waydroid to try it out and a lot of entries of its programs appeared in the hotkey section. I have uninstalled it now, but the hotkey entries remain. I can delete the entries from the list by pressing the trash can button next to them, but after restarting, they are back. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Set shortcut and/or remove leftover entries 2. Reboot OBSERVED RESULT Shortcut is gone and entries are back. EXPECTED RESULT Shortcut remains assigned and entries remain deleted. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Neon KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.2 Using X11 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Not sure if these two problems are related but since both involve setting something in the hotkey screen, which is then lost upon restart, I'm reporting them together. I have attached an image showing the hotkeys section with all the entries added from using Waydroid; and the Dolphin entry with no shortcut set.
