config file that holds the keyboard shortcuts.

Hi,

I removed all keyboard shortcuts in window manager => keyboard by creating a new profile and then clicking each entry and select "no shortcut".

Now I want to find the config file that holds these settings. Where can I find it?

I only found a file xfwm4_keys.xml in mcs_settings that points to the new theme but where is the theme that keeps the shortcuts?

I could do a similar thing for the more global shortcuts that are in keyboard => fastkeys. It created an xml file with the name of the profile that I created in "/home/<user>/.config/xfce4/shortcuts/<profilename>.xml" and then the shortcuts.xml file in the mcs_settings pointed to that (empty) profile.

Goal is ofcourse to disable any shortcut in xfce.

cheers.

Re: config file that holds the keyboard shortcuts.

There are several  .xml files under /home/user-name/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml.  One is named keyboard-layout.xml and another is xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts.xml.  One of these might be what you are looking for.

Re: config file that holds the keyboard shortcuts.

I think I found what I'm looking for here:
/usr/share/themes/Default/xfwm4/keythemerc

I found this in the cache from google somewhere.

cheers!
