Appendix F Hotkeys shortcuts
|
|
*****************************
|
|
|
|
Hotkeys, also known as keyboard shortcuts, allow users to easily navigate, start applications, and change settings like resize windows. These are useful as they create a smooth and time efficient user experience. It would benefit users to take a few minutes to learn some of these shortcuts.
|
|
|
|
Lubuntu has manages the keyboard shortcuts using two layers. Namely, LXQt Global Keys and Openbox.
|
|
|
|
Global-keys
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
Global-keys (lxqt-globalkeysd) is a component of the LXQt environment. Global-keys takes preference over Openbox keyboard shortcuts. Global keys are viewed, (dis)enabled and managed using Shortcut keys (Chapter 3.2.14).
|
|
|
|
Openbox keyboard shortcuts
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
Openbox keyboard shortcuts is the second layer managing keyboard shortcuts. It is preferred for windows management like resizing. To change these settings see this link on the `openbox wiki bindings <http://openbox.org/wiki/Help:Bindings>`_
|
|
|
|
.. note:: Global-keys will take preference over openbox bindings. If a key is used in Global-keys, it will not work in Openbox keyboard shortcuts. For example if the W(indows) key opens the LXQT application menu (equivilant of the windows start menu) in Global-keys, Openbox commands like window resizing (W + arrow keys) will not work correctly. Keep this in mind when using and editing keyboard shortcuts.
