xubuntu 14.04 change "minimize all windows" (show desktop)
None of the suggested answers:
How to change de "Minimize all windows" shortcut in Xubuntu? Simple launcher to minimize all windows?\ Is there a keybind to minimize all windows, without a toggle? ... answer the question, although moderators happily closed the questions with the comment "question was answered in ..." and refer to an earlier answer.
Well, we're talking about xubuntu, not ubuntu. And we're talking about xubuntu 14.04, not earlier editions. In 14.04 the system settings > keyboard app has no "navigation" tab, and I can't find any screen or input page that mentions Ctrl-Alt-d; althnough the answers above do suggest it. I tried it, and it works in 14.04.
So the question still is: How to put this Ctrl-Alt-D key sequence in a launcher which can be pinned to the panel, and what I want to know is... where is there a listing of all these keyboard gimmicks?
Thanks
The shortcut for "Show Desktop" is in the Window-Manager-Menu.
Settings → Window Manager → Keyboard
There you will find Show Desktop : Ctrl + Alt + D
and you can change it to whatever you wish.
You can also add the show desktop icon to the panel in Xubuntu (tested in 16.04, but I'm hoping it works in 14.04 too), as follows:
- Right-click an empty space on the panel
- Choose Panel → Add New Items...
- Search for Show desktop
- Select it and click Add
Now you have the show desktop icon to click on. I like to right click it and go to Move, then I move it to the far left next to my start menu icon.
