SUMMARY Currently there is only a shortcut for "Show Clipboard Items at Mouse Position", there should also be a shortcut to toggle show/hide for the plasmoid that _doesn't_ follow the mouse cursor. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Right click clipboard icon in tray, choose `Configure Clipboard...` 2. Select the `Shortcuts` tab on the left OBSERVED RESULT No shortcut available to toggle the plasmoid with a static position EXPECTED RESULT Should be a shortcut to toggle the plasmoid with a static position SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.91.90 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.248.0 Qt Version: 6.6.0
All system tray Plasmoids have the ability to set such a shortcut in the system tray settings. What's missing here is the ability to set the same shortcut from the applets own config

Maybe there should be a default button in the tray plasmoid configs that will bring the user to the system tray settings for its entry, where you can configure the "show" shortcut and when the icon should show in the tray.
As for the original request, I think that has to be a no. There's not a reason I can see to set a default keyboard shortcut for one random System Tray applet but not all the others--especially for an applet that already has a keyboard shortcut available to access its content in another way. The issue here is that for applets whose "Configure..." button opens a KCM or nonstandard dialog, you won't see the page that lets you set a keyboard shortcut for it. For those, you have to do so via the System Tray's own config dialog, on the "Entries" page. I'm not sure how we could improve this, but I'll change the title to reflect the true issue.

Definitely doesn't need a _default_ shortcut, just a (discoverable) way to set one. > The issue here is that for applets whose "Configure..." button opens a KCM > or nonstandard dialog, you won't see the page that lets you set a keyboard > shortcut for it.

Aside from the idea of there being a button that takes the user to the appropriate entry in the System Tray Settings, it can be confusing that the System Tray Settings has both `Entries` (that can configure keyboard shortcuts for various items) and `Keyboard Shortcuts` (which configures only the System Tray Settings shortcut).
Right, the "Keyboard Shortcuts" page could be a good place to locate the shortcuts for all the containing applets too, not just the main popup.
