Description Pawel 2017-11-17 21:21:04 UTC 
Whatever shortcut I set for the Dashboard (e.g. Alt + Space), the Meta key also evokes the dashboard by default (so my shortcut works, but so does Meta, although not set by me). I want to use Meta for other purposes, so unfortunately I have to disable shortcuts for the dashboard if I don't want interference.

OK, thanks a lot for this, the workaround has worked and will make my life easier. I've added it to the list of steps I have to take after a fresh installation of KDE. Still, one would hope that this would be fixed.

Thank you for the bug report! We believe this is now fixed in Plasma 6; the shortcut is now configurable in System settings > Shortcuts > plasmashell.
