I am using Ubuntu 14.04 with the following okular version:

-Qt: 4.8.6
-KDE Development Platform: 4.13.3
-Okular: 0.19.3

I know that I can configure the shortcuts that are available in the Settings>Configure shortcuts. Is there a way or a file that lets me modify the shortcuts for functions not included in that list?.

Motivation: I want vim like scrolling for my okular. So I want to configure the basic scrolling to hjkl. But from the available menu I can only configure auto-scroll or page scroll options respectively. This has been bothering me for some time now, and is even making me consider learning the KDE framework to make this doable; apparently that would like chasing Moby Dick.

I'm not sure about 0.19 but in 0.24 I've created my on scheme. In "Configure Shortcuts" you can export or save the default values to a file.

~/.kde4/share/apps/okular/okularDefaultshortcuts.rc

or ~/.kde/share/apps/okular/okularDefaultshortcuts.rc

  • like I said in my comment, I know you can modify from the defined shortcuts from "Configure Shortcuts". However, I want to modify other builtin scrolling that works with cursor keys to hjkl. I do not think I can do that with the configure shortcuts option.

  • If it's only the cursor keys hjkl for scrolling in okular already supports them.

  • Perhaps I need to get the newer version, because it does not work in my one. I will get back to you after (if) I update.

  • It might be that your okular is old but is it older than 2008? Have a look at this commit. link

  • I know its way late to be writing back, but my okular version is 0.19.3 and my KDE development platform is 4.13.3. I do not know if you have newer or older versions.
