SUMMARY I have a keyboard with multimedia and some other keys. I wanted to assign them to launch applications such as VLC player and KCalc. And I would also like to be able to launch other applications such as LibreOffice Writer or others with hot keys. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. I open the System parameters, Hot keys, then click button Add application, select KCalc, then I click the Add custom shortcut button. I click the button Calculator on the keyboard, the inscription inside the button changes, then I click Apply. 2. In another case, I do the same for the VLС player and the corresponding button on the keyboard. 3. And in another case, I do the same for LibreOffice Writer and the keyboard shortcut Meta+W. OBSERVED RESULT Nothing happens, hot keys in all cases do not start the application. EXPECTED RESULT Hotkeys must launch their applications ...
