I agree, in what I have in mind alt-tab should by default work as usual; however if the user gives focus to the lineEdit, we can let the user release "alt"and type; selection would be done with the mouse or with tab / backtab as in krunner. Also, we might use (by default) meta-tab to give directly focus to the lineEdit, in a present-window fashion. _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
