Ubuntu :: Change Icon For Shortcut?
Mar 23, 2011Is there some way that I can change the icon for a shortcut on the panel at the top of my desktop? I'm running Photoshop CS4 in Wine but I couldn't install it so I just copied the program files folder from my Windows 7 installation. Then, I just just drag-and-dropped Photoshop.exe on the panel, creating a shortcut to it. However, this will just show a generic icon for an executable file.

Aug 3, 2011I have read the 5, 10, 12 things to do after installing 11.04! I have installed Compiz Config Settings Manager and have played with the Launcher Icon Size slider.
That works well with "the Launcher" on the left but has no effect on the icons in the Shortcuts menu that appears when you hit the "Super" key. These are now so huge they run off the left of the screen (see attached screen capture). There is nothing obviously different from Compiz in the gconf Configuration Editor either.When you go into one of the sub-menus (e.g. More Apps) the icons are fine and fit to screen. PS, I like slightly bigger fonts and icons by default in everything and achieve this through a smaller Monitor resolution.

General :: Change Shortcut Keys In Thunderbird 3?
Apr 20, 2010I use Thunderbird on Ubuntu Linux and have just upgraded to Ubuntu 10 / Thunderbird 3. One of my gripes however is that Thunderbird uses a number of shortcut keys that have no secondary key requirements, for example, "Mark as Read" is M. Not ControlM. Just M. Worse, "Mark as Junk" is J. Which means I sometimes inadvertently mark messages as Junk.
How can I customize Thunderbird's shortcuts so, for example, "Mark as Junk" is ControlJ?
Software :: Change Bash Shortcut Keys Such As Ctrl-C?
Jul 5, 2010I*am using Kubuntu 10.04. I would like to change some of the standard shortcut keys for bash (terminal).
I want:
Ctrl-C to copy the selected text to the clipboard.
Ctrl-V to paste from the clipboard into the terminal.
Ctrl-Z to undo.
Ctrl-Shift-C (or even better, Super-C) to terminate the command.
Ctrl-Shift-Z (or Super-Z) to be the background command.
I*don't even know what Ctrl-V did before, some I*won't worry about remapping it.
EDIT:*I*have no idea what is putting the * char after each "I". Maybe this is a non-breaking space?
Ubuntu :: Switchers And Expo Will Not Work
Feb 6, 2011I am not sure if this is the right place to post this or not. I had the expo, ring switcher, and the shift switcher configured to run when I put my cursor in each corner that I had set up to start the switcher. One day, I was doing schoolwork when the windows that I had spread out over the different workspaces all consolidated to Workspace 1 and none of my switchers worked. I tried rebooting the computer, reverting all changes I had made in Compiz, everything I knew how to do.
View 9 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: GQView - Change / Edit Mouse Button Shortcut?
Feb 1, 2010When using the above image viewer, it would be easier for me to be able to close the viewer/image while displaying an image in fullscreen mode, by clicking on the middle mouse button, rather than right clicking and choosing "Exit full screen", then clicking on the cross in the corner of the window. This is similar to how Firefox can close tabs by middle-clicking with the mouse wheel.
Mouse function editing in GQview seems limited to controlling whether the scroll wheel pans up and down the picture, or moves to the next/previous picture. Any way I can edit the preferences file for GQview at .gqview/gqviewrc in order to achieve the above shortcut facility on my mousewheel, for this application? Or is anyone familiar with another Linux image viewer that does allow the mouse to be programmed in this way?
Ubuntu :: Cannot See Expo In Compiz Setting Manager
Feb 7, 2011I have installed Ubuntu Netbook 10.10 but didn't like the interface so on log in I just start in desktop mode. I am using the CompizConfig Setting Manager and want to activate Expo and other desktop extras. I have changed the System > Preferences > Appearance > Visual Effects to extra but I still do not see Expo in ccsm. Do I need to install each plug in separately? I have included a screen shot of ccsm too.

Jun 19, 2010I have a lucid stock install of Ubuntu, and the visual effects are set to Normal.
The Windows-E shortcut brings up the 'expo' display of all four workspaces in a line.
Is there a way of making (say) the top right corner of the screen sensitive so that moving the mouse there triggers the display of all workspaces?
Can this be done with 'stock' installed software?
gconf-editor has a promising looking key called 'expo_edge' at
/apps/compiz/plugins/expo/allscreens/options/expo_edge
but that might do something different.

Ubuntu :: Window Snapping In Compiz's "Expo"
Feb 5, 2011As im sure most of you know, in gnome-shell when one activates the "activities" corner, much like in Kwin, you can view all of your workspaces, and the windows in each workspace are scaled so they are all visible. One can also drag and drop windows across workspaces, and when they do, the window "snaps" over to the other workspace.
Does anyone know of a way to make windows in compiz's expo plugin do such a thing?
Ubuntu :: Can't Call Compiz' "Scale" After "Expo"
Feb 23, 2010is there a way to call Compiz' Scale plugin after the Expo plugin has be started? Basically I want it to work like on Mac OS X, where it's no problem to compine Spaces (Expo) with with Expos�'s "Show all windows" function (screenshot: [URL]).
Somehow the hot corners and the keyboard shortcuts are locked during the Expo view. Is it possible to unlock them? Or is there another Compiz plugin I can use?
Ubuntu :: Keyboard Shortcut For Ssh?
May 10, 2010I recently switched from GNOME to xfce, and I can't get working a simple keyboard shortcut to ssh to another machine.
In GNOME, I made a launcher (which gnome-do found); the first time I ran the launcher I'd get an X11 popup asking for by ssh passphrase, and then it would be saved for the rest of the GNOME session, making logins nice and fast.
In xfce, a similar launcher opens a new xfce4-terminal, which asks for the passphrase every time. I made a keyboard shortcut to "ssh -X me@server" -- this open an X11 popup for the passphrase, but no terminal, because there is no "run in terminal" option for keyboard shortcuts.
I'd be okay with running "ssh-add" at every login, but it has to be system-wide, rather than attached to one terminal instance. Passphraseless ssh is an options but a creepy one.

View 9 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Multimonitor: Win + P Shortcut Like In Windows 7?
Jun 10, 2010I like a lot the keyboard shortcuts that are available in Windows 7 for managing windows across multiple screens and would like to replicate them in ubuntu. So far I created shortcuts for moving windows from one screen to another.
WinKey + Left: Move active window to the left screen
wmctrl -r :ACTIVE: -e 0,0,-1,-1,-1
WinKey + Right: Move active window to the right screen
wmctrl -r :ACTIVE: -e 0,1280,-1,-1,-1
Now when you press WinKey+P in Win7 you get a nice menu where you can select if you want only monitor1, monitor2 or both. I would like to at least create shortcuts to switch between these modes. For example bind WinKey+1 to turn only monitor1 on, WinKey+2 for m2 and something else to have both monitors on.
