http://usability.kde.org/activity/completed/combobuttondelay.php describes the combo-button delay feature. Anyone know how I can access the pull-down menu of such command buttons using the keyboard?
A point in question is: the reboot button in the logout dialog has many boot options - I would like to select the option I want from this, using the keyboard only. (I can of course navigate to the button using Tab or cursor keys.)
Thank you,
Shriramana.
Navigate to the button and hold down shift. After a second or so you should see the whole list. Then use the arrow keys to select the reboot method you want. To abort, I just hit ESC until the box went away (while still holding down the spacebar). I have just learned this myself, so I may be missing a few things. Alvin -- Please reply to the list.
