Is there a way of resizing panels or side-panes or embedded terminals from the keyboard in KDE applications?
For example, in Dolphin you can open an embedded terminal (press F4); sometimes it is handy to resize this to make it taller or shorter. Is there a keyboard shortcut for doing this kind of thing? I mean in general, not just with Dolphin and terminal. Here is an example of what I am getting at: Kate and Konqueror have the ability to split screens and there is a command to move the splitter which can be assigned a shortcut. It would be great to be able to do this with any splitter that can be resized in any window, for instance any of the panels in Dolphin. My use case is to resize embedded terminals in Kate, Kile and Dolphin, but I would also like to resize the message bar and side bar in both Kate and Kile without having to use the mouse. I can't find any shortcut keys in the global or standard shortcuts settings, nor in special window or application settings. My googling has not turned up anything. I am guessing there is not a way to do this, but I thought I'd make sure and ask. |

You're on the wrong subforum (Window Manager), I suggest to move that up or to the dolphin(?) forum.
Afacis only kate has this feature. Since the layouts can be randomly complex (and the splitters not necessarily contain focusable elements) I doubt this could be generalized, but every client needs to add shortcuts pointing the "right" splitter. |

Thanks for the response (sorry for the late reply, been away for the holidays). I thought since I was asking about a general feature that this might be the place, sorry about that. I'll see about this for individual applications.
