Description James J. Ramsey 1999-02-20 20:29:47 UTC

(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package: kwm
Severity: Wishlist

The keybinding for cycling through the virtual desktops Ctrl-Tab can
_only_ be turned of in the dialog brought up by clicking on "K menu"
button -> Settings -> Windows -> Advanced and not in the dialog
brought up by "K menu" button -> Settings -> Keys -> Global Keys. This
is inconsistent and poor design; after all if the user finds a need
to change a keybinding where is the natural place to go the Keys
menu or the Windows menu?

I put this under the 'Wishlist' section since it is essentially a
feature request but it really is fairly urgent in its own way. KDE is
supposed to provide a friendly UI and it's the little niggling itsy
problems I mentioned above that make the difference between a GUI that
works well and one that gives users the runaround.

Hi!

You've reported a bug for kwm which was using in
KDE up to version 1.1.2. 
As KDE 2 uses a rewrite dubbed kwin noone is going
to fix the old kwm bugs so I'm closing it. Please test
your very problem with KDE2 to see if it's still there
and rereport a kwin bug.

Thanks Stephan
