A KDE program launcher shortcut

KDE does not ship with a program launcher shortcut. The "windows" or much better meta key is used for combinations. So you have to invent some shortcut. I have chosen meta + space.

Finding the settings was not easy. I gave up following the googled instructions. Many were far out in the green nerdy weeds. But try this:

1. Right-click on the K icon (bottom left).
2. Panel settings > panel settings

The window above will open. Click the shortcut symbol - and enter your shortcut.
