Description Enda 2012-07-12 17:19:19 UTC
Could there be a default shortcut for full screen mode (like CTRL+SHIFT+P)?

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Jekyll Wu 2012-07-12 17:39:16 UTC
It is generally good to have a default shortcut, but why "Ctrl+Shift+P"? It is hard for users to  connect it  with "Full Screen Mode".

Considering that kwin provides the gloabl shortcut "Make Window Fullscreen" and it works well with konsole, I think there is no strong need for defining a *default* shotcut for "Full Screen Mode".

CTRL+SHIFT+F (which is used in many other KDE applications) is taken by 'Find'.

The P in CTRL+SHIFT+P could stand for 'Presentation' (as it does in some apps, where presentation mode is like full screen mode), and some default shortcut is better than none...

...within Konsole.

FYI, I just notice that "Ctrl+Shift+P" has been assigned to the new "Print Screen" action in the upcoming KDE SC 4.10. See bug 249084 .

What do people think about F11?  It seems the default in some apps/distros.
Comment 6 squan 2014-02-15 07:39:53 UTC
The recommended fullscreen shortcut for KDE apps seems to be Shift-Strg-F (as used by e.g. kate, kdevelop, kdenlive,  gwenview, digikam, showfoto). 
And KDE3 konsole.
Several mediaplayers simply use 'F'.

The still unsolved problem seems to be that in KDE4 konsole Shift-Strg-F not available for fullscreen since it is already taken for  the 'find' function.
F11 as used by most browsers (and openshot)  would be an alternative.
