Can't set "Alt+Ctrl+T" to launch terminal in xfce4
I followed normal steps to assign Alt+Ctrl+T to open a terminal window. (Menu → Settings Manager → Keyboard → Application Shortcuts → Add and follow steps) but it just doesn't seem to work. I was following this: How to open terminal on Xubuntu and some other sources.
Why isn't it working? How do I make it work?
Solution 1:
I'd like to suggest the following steps:
-
go to 'Start' at the top left corner, and open Settings Manager
or
open Terminal and type
xfce4-settings-manager
- open Keyboard
- open Application Shortcuts Tab
- click Add button (with greed-icon) below
- type xfce4-terminal
- trigger the shortcut, which is in this (Ctrl + Alt + T)
Good luck!
Solution 2:
I solved this by adding the shortcut Ctrl+Alt+T for the command gnome-terminal
, using XFCE and TigerVNC. Go to the XFCE settings or run xfce4-settings-manager
, then Keyboard
, Application Shortcuts
. Press Add
and use gnome-terminal
as the command you want to trigger and finally the shortcut.
