 +Note that for some keys the ''<Shift>'' modifier seems to be ignored. (E.g. ''<Primary><Shift>1'' fails, where ''<Primary>exclam'' works fine.) Most likely a gtk bug.

 If you are a packager or a system administrator and want to provide a system wide default for the keyboard shortcuts, that is different from the default shortcuts in Thunar, you can create a file ''Thunar/accels.scm'' in one of the ''$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS''. For example, if ''/etc/xdg'' is part of ''$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS'' (the default for most Linux distributions), you can install system wide defaults to ''/etc/xdg/Thunar/accels.scm''. Thunar will then load shortcuts from this file on first startup. If you are a packager or a system administrator and want to provide a system wide default for the keyboard shortcuts, that is different from the default shortcuts in Thunar, you can create a file ''Thunar/accels.scm'' in one of the ''$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS''.

 +=== How to hide fixed disks or user locations from the sidebar ===
 +
 +You can prevent fixed disks from showing up in Thunar's sidebar by adding ''x-gvfs-hide'' option to the relevant partition in the ''/etc/fstab'' file or from your disk utility. [[https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/master/monitor/udisks2/what-is-shown.txt|Controlling what is shown in the user interface]]
 +
 +You can hide "Desktop", "Home", ... and default GTK bookmarks from the side pane by commenting out their entries in ''~/.config/user-dirs.dirs'' [[https://askubuntu.com/questions/79150/how-to-remove-bookmarks-from-the-nautilus-sidebar/79266#79266|How to remove bookmarks from the sidebar]]
