Move KDE window without mouse CLICK?

Right now, Under System Settings > Window Actions and Behavior > Window Actions > Inner Window, Titlebar & Frame:

[] Alt Modifier Key + Left Button = Move
[] Alt Modifier Key + Right Button = Size

But is there some way I could do this without having to press the mouse button... Ideally I could use:

CTRL+FN and move to start moving the window
CTRL+FN+WIN to start resizing my window

Is this something I can do by writing a custom KWin Script?

When using a laptop with a track pad as opposed to a real external mouse, getting rid of an extra "trackpad click" in middle of these finger gymnastics would be a big help :-)

Re: Move KDE window without mouse CLICK?

iirc there's a shortcut to trigger move/resize actions on the active window, "kcmshell5 keys", kwin component

Seth, I googled `kcmshell5 keys and kwin` but I haven't been able to find anything helpful... Any more clues?

kcmshell5 directly opens config dialogs.
