KGlobalAccel: Let me name custom function descriptions Since KHotkeys is getting the ax in Plasma 6, I’m currently migrating my several custom shortcuts over to KGlobalAccel. In doing so, I found it strange that there aren’t any function descriptions. Instead of a complicated line with arguments for PulseAudio I want to read a short custom name of my shortcut in the list. Something I can still understand a week later.
A merge request is already in the works https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop/-/merge_requests/1644

Is there any progress on this? With Plasma 6 going to repositories, this functionality that KHotkeys had is really needed for KGlobalAccel.

Was just about to post a bug and came across this one, which was close enough. I have upgraded to kde6 and under Shortcuts > Commands it still has everything from KDE5, and they for the most part work, but I cannot change them. For example in ~/.config/khotkeysrc [Data_5] Comment=Toggle between full speed and normal. Enabled=true Name=Adjust Fan Speed Type=SIMPLE_ACTION_DATA [Data_5Actions] ActionsCount=1 [Data_5Actions0] CommandURL=/usr/local/bin/fan_toggle_full_throttle.sh Type=COMMAND_URL [Data_5Conditions] Comment= ConditionsCount=0 [Data_5Triggers] Comment=Simple_action TriggersCount=1 [Data_5Triggers0] Key=Volume Down Type=SHORTCUT Uuid={8829721f-8a47-4cca-a7f4-45111daaf719} Now if I go to edit this I only get the two images (khotkey1 khotkey2). The comment "Toggle between full speed and normal." is gone, if I click on the edit button it just shows the name "Adjust Fan Speed", the command cannot be seen. Perhaps with a fresh khotkeysrc this will work better but right now this is a bit janky.
