    Question (KDE) Minimize/Maximize Keyboard Shortcut

    I'm trying to find the existing keyboard shortcuts (in KDE 4.6) to minimize and maximize the active window. I haven't come across anything that works, as of yet, and the Wikipedia's Table of Keyboard Shortcuts doesn't have anything in the appropriate boxes. Does KDE not come with default shortcuts for min/max?

    If I need to create my own custom shortcuts using the KDE Control Module, does anyone have any pointers/tips? If I need to make my own shortcut, then ideally I'd have the active window minimize with "Meta + [Down] ", and maximize with "Meta + [Up] ", so that my fingers memorize the same movement that they use with Windows.

    Any help from the community would be great. Thanks.

    Alt+F2 and type "systemsettings" then click on "Shortcuts and Gestures". The window management shortcuts are under "Global Keyboard shortcuts", then select "Kwin" from the drop-down menu. By default maximise is Alt+F11 and minimise is Alt+F10.
