Hi.

From time to time, I've got to work on Windows systems and I do this, by remotely logging in using rdesktop. As you "maybe" 8) know, in Windows, you change applications by hitting the <Alt>+<Tab> key combination. Guess they copied that from KDE / kwin, where you also use that combo *G*

Well, when the rdesktop application has the focus and I hit <Alt>+<Tab> keys, the taskswitcher of KDE catches this. But I'd like Windows/rdesktop to handle this key combination (if rdesktop has the focus).

How could I achieve this?

Using KDE 4.6 on openSUSE 11.4.


Thanks,
Alexander

Right click on the rdesktop Window Decoration, select Advanced > Special Application Settings. Change to Appearance & Fixes tab, then check "Ignore global shortcuts" and apply.

Names were a bit different, but it works now.
