Thanks. It is much clearer now. But I have a few concerns. I defined the following keys: gconftool-2 --set --type string /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/move_to_corner_nw "<ctrl><alt>q" gconftool-2 --set --type string /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/move_to_corner_ne "<ctrl><alt>e" gconftool-2 --set --type string /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/move_to_corner_sw "<ctrl><alt>z" gconftool-2 --set --type string /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/move_to_corner_se "<ctrl><alt>c" gconftool-2 --set --type string /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/move_to_side_n "<ctrl><alt>w" gconftool-2 --set --type string /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/move_to_side_s "<ctrl><alt>x" gconftool-2 --set --type string /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/move_to_side_e "<ctrl><alt>d" gconftool-2 --set --type string /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/move_to_side_w "<ctrl><alt>a" gconftool-2 --set --type string /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/move_to_center "<ctrl><alt>s" I can't move window for example from SW corner (Ctrl+Alt+z) to S side (Ctrl+Alt+x). Moving from every 4 corners to every 4 side is impossible. Is this a bug or a feature? Second concer. I open up a urxvt terminal window, I use Ctrl+Alt+z to move is to the lower left corner. When I open a new urxvt tab, the window moves automatically to the center of the screen. This is where it was before I moved it with defined key combination. Similar behaviour is happening to other applications too. Again is this a bug or a feature :) mihkel Florian Müllner <fmuellner gnome org> writes: > > No, custom keybindings in System Settings can be defined to bind an > executable to a keybinding - "move_to_corner_nw" is not an executable, > but a gconf key, which is there error you are seeing. > > System Settings does not expose all keybindings known to the WM, the one > you want to set is one of them - so you'll have to fall back to setting > it in gconf directly: > > gconftool-2 --set --type > string /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/move_to_corner_nw > "<ctrl><alt>z" > > > Florian
