Assign right-Ctrl, to focus terminal?

Hi

I'd like to assign a keyboard shortcut, such right-Ctrl, that will bring my dropdown terminal to the front and give it focus.

Is this possible?

Thanks very much

Not sure if this is what you mean: Systems Manager > Keyboard > Application Shortcuts: Add a new entry

Command: xfce4-terminal --drop-down
Shortcut: press the key combo when the dialog box comes up

Hi

Thanks very much, that worked .

I've now got terminal assigned to toggle focus on right-Ctrl (which is a button I usually never use).
