desktop key for Ubuntu 12.10

[terrylai]

Hello all,

The desktop key ctrl-alt-d is not working in 12.10.

Is there any way to enable this?

BR,
Terry.

In 12.04 Ctrl+Super+D says: Hide All Normal Windows (System Settings > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Navigation).
Is that the option what are you looking for?

On my desktop, Ctrl-Super-D hides all windows and shows the desktop (Super = Windows key).

You do not tell us what you are expecting ctrl+alt-d to do in 12.10. Some key mappings have been changed in 12.10 from 12.04.

Hold down the super key and a desktop overlay will appear. See if there is a key combination that does what you want. I cannot find any reference to Ctrl+alt+d in System Settings>Keyboard>Shortcuts. Maybe Ctrl+Alt+d is not designed to do anything in 12.10.

Regards.
