           Summary: Show accelerator underlines only when the user presses
                    the Alt key
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: spatz at gentoo.org


Version:            (using KDE 4.4.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

Instead of always showing underlines for accelerators in buttons, menus, etc.
they should only be shown when the Alt key is pressed. Always showing the
underlines can be confusing to users and adds clutter.

In Windows this is the default behavior since Windows 2000 and in GTK+ it's a
configuration option (see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=588554),
and I think it should also be available in KDE.
Note that in GTK+ it's also possible to completely disable the accelerators,
but I don't think that's a useful configuration option.
