Bug ID: 488833
Summary: Many Click-Enabled Shortcuts Changed to use Meta Key
instead of Alt with No Configuration Option
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.1.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: eamonn...@protonmail.com
CC: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
Some shortcuts that previously used Alt+Mouse Click, such as Alt+Left Mouse to
drag a window, or Alt+Right Mouse to resize, have now switched to Meta+Mouse
Click. I think before there was a way to configure this modifier key, as I
believe Meta became the default recently, but with Plasma 6.1.0 I cannot find a
way to configure this, so I am (possibly incorrectly ;-)) assuming the
configuration option for this has been taken out.
In Plasma 6.0.5 and below, I was able to use the Alt key for this
functionality, and have done so for many years.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Move Window shortcut is now enforced as Meta+Left Click
2. Resize Window shortcut is now enforced as Meta+Right Click
3. Previously these shortcuts were either by default or configurable to use
"Alt" as the modifier, but now the default has been set to Meta with seemingly
no way to change this.
OBSERVED RESULT
Move Window shortcut is now enforced as Meta+Left Click. Resize Window shortcut
is now enforced as Meta+Right Click
EXPECTED RESULT
Plasma should have respected the user defaults, and should allow the option to
change this modifier key if the functionality has indeed been removed (or if it
was never there to begin with and my memory is just not good :-))
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
