show desktop in kubuntu?

[ralphiekabo]

Is it possible to minimise all windows and show the desktop in Kubuntu like it is in Ubuntu or Windows? I can't find a button anywhere.
Sorry if this is startlingly obvious, I'm extremely new to Linux and Kubuntu.

Ctrl+Alt+D

You can set change it into a different keyboard shortcut in:

System Settings > Regional and Accessibility > Keyboard Shortcuts > Global Shortcuts under the name of "Toggle Showing Desktop".

You can also add a button to the panel:
Right-click on panel>Add Applet to Panel>Show Desktop

but the shortcut is usually faster
