power-profiles-daemon is the way forward now; closing.

I think having at least two workspaces will allow users to discover this awesome feature.

It's exactly what Cinnamon does.

BTW since this was filed, things changed a lot upstream, so you now do the following by default:

As I mentioned in T10568 we need IMHO better discoverability not yet another global shortcut.

Given that it is a task relevant only to Kubuntu, I suggest to un-tag KWin to keep downstream things out of our workboard.

The action to toggle window borders is already implemented. It's called "Hide Window Border". However, no default shortcut is assigned to it.

Hi David. That is really a good news! Thx for working on this!

Nevertheless you have IMHO a valid point: hard discoverability. The global shortcut
settings page could be enhanced. Enhancing this would not only help others finding
you personal favourite feature(s) but all others too.

Adding 'User Feedback' what global shortcuts people really set, could help in
future decision what action is probably a candidate for a global shortcut.

stay healthy, Achim

1. Screen Real Estate optimization.
   • it saves vertical space especially on maximized windows that you are isolating anyway because its maximized
   • it makes the quick tiling functions better because it allows for windows to use the space more effieciently.
2. Its a nice feature for gamers because Fullscreen Gaming can sometimes be an issue for some games especially via Proton layers.
   • Removing the border allows you to put a game in Windowed Mode and then maximize it for a Faux-Fullscreen experience so it performs as if it was in Windowed Mode but looks like fullscreen.

What's the use case for toggling the window decorations of the active window?

The function should be called "Hide/Show Window Borders" but it's called "No Borders" which is fairly awkward.

Ironically, if shortcuts are filtered for "hide" or "border", Hide Window border is the only option. I don't use meta+b so we use both meta+B and meta+H as primary and secondary.

Here is my follow up to why this should be done since this was denied for a silly reason (typical for KDE in my experience) [reason: 'what could be done' somewhere else]

I use meta+H to "hide" the borders.
