https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=385862 --- Comment #5 from Nate Graham --- Glad you're happy. :) I agree on the subject of Cinnamon: it's a towering edifice of good defaults. I aspire to help KDE Plasma reach that same level. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=385862 --- Comment #4 from Gerhard Dittes --- Hi Nate, you're my personal hero! ;-) I also have been missing (sane) default shortcuts for "window tiling" for a long time. (But my intention was first to wait til my wishes above will get fulfilled, before going to address this one.) I really appreciate the proposal for the "window tiling" shortcuts -- it reminds me strongly of the Cinnamon desktop. Regarding this, I think that the Linux-Mint creators did a great job with Cinnamon. I'm addicted to the the Plasma desktop, but the Cinnamon guys really did/do great defaults ... helping new/switching users (because when designing keyboard shortcuts, they oriented themselves by other existing desktops).

See https://phabricator.kde.org/D11377 I'll see if I can make the case. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=385862 --- Comment #2 from Gerhard Dittes --- Hi, @Nate, thanks for your comment. It's a pity... Especially for the particular "KDE programs" using these shortcuts... Because this means that if anyone uses such a program on (nearly any) other desktop, the shortcuts are *not going to work*, because the window manager in place usually gets precedence! (Is this case strong enough? ;-) ) AFAIKS, there is only a small number of programs using those (defacto standard) shortcuts. Therefore, I still think it would be worth trying to enforce sane default shortcuts for the desktop. Regards, Gerhard -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

You can see for yourself with https://lxr.kde.org/search?_filestring=&_string=CTRL.*ALT.*Up Personally I'm always in favor of changing default shortcuts if the change results in something better and more consistent overall (IMHO of course) but many KDE developers are understandably much more conservative in this matter. You'll need to make a pretty strong case to convince them. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
