Disable Ctrl-Alt-L in KDE

Question

The IntelliJ IDEA short-cut to reformat source code is Ctrl-Alt-L. This happens to lock the screen in KDE (Gnome too?). How can I disable this so IntelliJ receives the key sequence?

Answer 1

Under the K menu, go to the Control Center.

Regional & Accessibility | Keyboard Shortcuts | Shortcut Schemes tab, Global Shortcuts tab.

In the search box, type "lock", which should narrow the visible shortcuts and show the Ctrl-Alt-L one ("Lock Session").

Underneath, click None.

Click the Apply button.

Answer 2

I eventually found how to disable the lock screen key binding (Ctrl-Alt-L) in the System Setting app.

System Settings->"Keyboard Mouse->Keyboard Shortcuts

I had to choose the KDE component: Run Command Interface.

I'm running KDE on Fedora Core 9.
