           Summary: Use XF86Zoom* key events as zoom function across all
                    KDE applications.
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: direx at betriebsdirektor.de


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.4.5) 
OS:                Linux

Nowadays many keyboards and mice are equipped with special zoom buttons which
generate XF86ZoomIn and XF86ZoomOut events.
It would be nice if these events could be used as zoom events in all KDE
applications per default. Right now it is only possible to make use of these
events by assigning manual keyboard shortcuts for each application, but it is
quite a hassle to configure them for all KDE applications (konqueror, digikam,
qwenview, kate, ...).
As an alternative it would be sufficient if "Zoom In" and "Zoom Out" could be
configured for all KDE apps in Systemsettings -> Global Shortcuts.

Reproducible: Always
