It appears that in KDE 4.x there is no show desktop keyboard shortcut.

Is there plans to add one, I think a lot of people want this for example like Win+D or Win+M.

Note this is different to Plasma show dashboard & this shortcut was available in KDE 3.x

I admit it's very useful and there's lack of it. In 4.0.5 not found it.
Comment 2 Toomas 2008-07-30 06:21:26 UTC 
Is there a workaround to this? I'm trying 4.1 right now and I'm unable to find it. I use the functionality constantly in my 3.5.x.

Comment 5 Miroslav Hruz 2008-08-13 21:47:06 UTC 
Its killer feature of what I am using KDE desktop, I need this shortcut :)

currently you can add plasmoid button 'show desktop' to the panel if that helps.
Comment 7 Jason A. Donenfeld 2008-09-28 12:38:18 UTC 
the idea is that having it as a keyboard shortcut is essential
Comment 8 Jonathan Thomas 2008-11-23 17:00:49 UTC 
In KDE 4.1 you can set a shortcut to any plasmoid you want, but there isn't a GUI for assigning shortcuts. The request for a GUI for assigning shortcuts to plasmoids is bug 167881.
