Keyboard + mouse combinations, please help!

Hi all,

Few years ago I used combination Alt+MouseButton1 for moving windows in KDE and
it was _very_ handy.

I mean hit Alt+button1 in any point of the window allows me to drag the window to
new place while pressed.

I don't remember that KDE version.

Is it possible to configure such a behaviour in KDE 3.5.6, by any means?

Please advise.

My system (3.5.5, updated on Fedora 5) is configured that way by default. To change/set this behavior, go to KDE configuration, Desktop | Window Behavior. KDE can be configured to do just about anything you can think of. Just browse around the config settings.

Thanks, it really works!

It's a pity there can be configured only one modificator at a time. And one of just two.

Would be fine to set either Control, Alt and Meta..

Maybe there is some configuration file which can be edited to do so?
