==Mouse Gestures== <!--T:21-->
<!--T:125-->
{{Note|3=Note for translators|1=This section has been moved to [[System Settings/Shortcuts and Gestures]]. We shall leave the content here as well for some time to make it easier to move your translations.}}
<!--T:22-->
:''KDE SC version 4.4.4''
<!--T:23-->
The place where you start is "<menuchoice>System Settings -> Input Actions</menuchoice>"
===Enabling mouse gestures=== <!--T:24-->
<!--T:25-->
In the bottom left corner of the window there is a <menuchoice>Settings</menuchoice> button.  Make sure that the <menuchoice>Gestures</menuchoice> checkbox is checked.  Set the timout as you see fit.  The mouse button might be different for you, I chose 3 for using the right mouse button.  If you want input actions to be enabled automatically, check the "Start the input Actions daemon on login" above.
===Creating the Mouse gestures actions group=== <!--T:26-->
<!--T:27-->
Right click on the left pane (in an empty area under the list of action groups) and choose <menuchoice>New Group</menuchoice>, rename that group to "Mouse Gestures" and check the checkbox attached to its name.
===Creating a new mouse gesture=== <!--T:28-->
<!--T:29-->
From now on I will assume that the new group is called "Mouse Gestures".
Right click on <menuchoice>Mouse Gestures</menuchoice> and choose <menuchoice>New -> Mouse Gesture Action</menuchoice>
(here there are three options but I didn't manage to work with "Send Keyboard Input")
using "Command/URL" or "D-Bus Command" you will need to create a gesture and bind an action to it.
====To create the gesture==== <!--T:30-->
<!--T:31-->
Click on your <menuchoice>New Action</menuchoice> and select the <menuchoice>Trigger</menuchoice> tab.
in the bottom of the screen there is an <menuchoice>Edit</menuchoice> button (click it).  In the box that just opened draw your gesture using the ''left'' mouse button.
====To bind an action==== <!--T:32-->
<!--T:33-->
if you chose <menuchoice>Command/URL</menuchoice> simply enter that command/url under the <menuchoice>Action</menuchoice> tab at the <menuchoice>Command/URL</menuchoice> field.
===Examples using Command/URL=== <!--T:34-->
====Close window==== <!--T:35-->
<!--T:36-->
This command will let you close the next window you mouse click on.
{{Note|wmctrl may not support your Window Manager.}}
<!--T:37-->
{{Input|1=Command/URL: wmctrl -c :SELECT:}}
<!--T:38-->
to close the active window
<!--T:39-->
{{Input|1=Command/URL: wmctrl -c :ACTIVE:}}
====Translate clipboard content==== <!--T:63-->
<!--T:64-->
This command will display a translation of the current clipboard content.
*'''Required for this are:'''
**xclip
**libtranslate
<!--T:65-->
{{Input|<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">Command/URL: kdialog --title "Translation" --msgbox "`xclip -o | translate -f en -t he -`"</syntaxhighlight>}}
Replace 'en' and 'he' with the desired source and destination language, if you are not sure, a full list of language codes is available from [http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/code_list.php the ISO 639-2] list.
===Examples using D-Bus=== <!--T:40-->
<!--T:41-->
If you chose D-Bus, here are few examples.
<!--T:42-->
Finding out what to fill where, is done with the help of the "Launch D-Bus Browser", using that browser you can find what method you wish to call in what application object.  Using D-Bus we need to fill some fields, the field name will be regular and the content ''italic''.
====Runner==== <!--T:43-->
<!--T:44-->
This will display the '''Runner''' dialog.
<!--T:45-->
Remote Application: ''org.kde.krunner''
<!--T:46-->
Remote Object: ''/App''
<!--T:47-->
Function: ''org.kde.krunner.App.display''
====Audacious next/previous/pause/play/stop/repeat track==== <!--T:48-->
<!--T:49-->
Remote Application: ''org.mpris.audacious''
<!--T:50-->
Remote Object: ''/Player''
<!--T:51-->
Function: ''org.freedesktop.MediaPlayer.'''Next''''' (replace Next with Prev/Pause/Stop/Play/Repeat)
====Audacious PlayPause track==== <!--T:52-->
<!--T:53-->
If not playing will play, if playing will pause.
<!--T:54-->
Remote Application: ''org.mpris.audacious''
<!--T:55-->
Remote Object: ''/org/atheme/audacious''
<!--T:56-->
Function: ''org.atheme.audacious.PlayPause''
====Klipper manually invoke action menu==== <!--T:57-->
<!--T:58-->
display the actions pop-up.
(I am using that to search and translate words)
<!--T:59-->
Remote Application: ''org.kde.klipper''
<!--T:60-->
Remote Object: ''/klipper''
<!--T:61-->
Function: ''org.kde.klipper.klipper.showKlipperManuallyInvokeActionMenu''</translate>
