Description Fabian Vogt 2024-06-03 17:16:25 UTC
Before Plasma 6.0, I used Ctrl-F8 to get grid view showing all desktops and their windows. This is visible in kglobalshortcutsrc:

[kwin]
ShowDesktopGrid=Ctrl+F8,Meta+F8,Arbeitsflächen-Raster anzeigen

After upgrading to 6.0, this stopped working. Trying to assign Ctrl-F8 to some other effect causes an error message, saying that Ctrl-F8 is already in use by the desktop grid effect, which does not exist anymore.

FWICT it needs to be migrated to

Grid View=Ctrl+F8,Meta+G,Toggle Grid View
