Determining Shortcut Keys

An easy way to determine custom shortcut key values is to:

• Watch for dconf changes by opening a terminal and running dconf watch /
• Set a temporary custom GNOME shortcut (Settings -> Keyboard -> View and Customize Shortcuts -> Custom Shortcuts)

The dconf command will display the chosen shortcut keys. Delete the shortcut and use the displayed shortcut in the above customization commands.
