Using: openSUSE 12.2, KDE.
Having used Ubuntu/gnome 2 for several years, I had become used to the speed of ALT+Space to bring up my window menu for rapid maximize/normalize/minimize functions. Eventually I found this bound to ALT+F3, a horribly awkward binding in KDE (as found in the
Wikipedia shorcuts table). I couldn't find any easy documentation on changing this, so I thought I would share here.
Applications -> Configure Desktop -> Shortcuts and Gestures -> Global Keyboard Shortcuts
here, as a newbie, I hadn't realized you could drop-down on "KDE Components" (with so many options, I start to miss things). I honestly thought Amarok was the only program with global shortcuts! *FACE PALM*
Anyway, go to KWin and search "menu". The only option that appears for me is just what you want: "Windows Operation Menu." I rebound mine to Alt+Space.
Once again, altogether thats:
Applications -> Configure Desktop -> Shortcuts and Gestures -> Global Keyboard Shortcuts | KDE Component: KWin : Search: "menu"
