           Summary: "Reclaim keyboard shortcut" button wanted
           Product: kdevelop
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Mandrake RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdevelop-devel at kdevelop.org
        ReportedBy: jozef.behran at krs.sk


Version:           2.1.5 (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs
OS:          Linux

(This request may apply on the KDE base but I got this issue when configuring kdevelop so therefore it's here)

Imagine this situation: When configuring keyboard shortcuts I select an action (say ABC) from the menu and say I want assign a keyboard shortcut. Then I press the shortcut and it says "this key combination is allocated to XYZ action, please choose an unique key combination [Cancel]". Now I must manually search for the action XYZ (sometimes in different section of KDE) and cancel it's shortcut to be able to set the shortcut to the action I want.

I would like an [Reclaim] button on the dialog box saying "this key combination is allocated to XYZ". When I press the [Reclaim] button, the application (or KDE or whoever is handling the keyboard shortcuts) skould set the XYZ action's keyboard shortcut to "None" and then set the selected keyboard shortcut to the action ABC. When I don't want this, I simply press [Cancel].
