Disable Linux Mint Alt-F1 shortcut

I am using Linux Mint and experimenting with IntelliJ.

IntelliJ has a Alt+F1 shortcut (Select in...). Unfortunately it is also used by Mint to display an overview of workspaces.

I would like to keep the shortcut's use for IntelliJ and disable it in Mint.

Where can I disable this Alt+F1 in Mint? I can't see it anywhere in Keyboard Shortcuts.

How do I disable Keyboard Shortcuts in Linux Mint?

On Cinnamon on Linux Mint 13 (Maya) the "Active the window menu" shortcut (bound by default to Alt+Space) is under Menu -> Preferences -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts. Just click the relevant row to edit or disable the binding.

How do I turn off Alt Shortcuts?

Select “Keyboard” from the list on the left side of your screen. Click on “Shortcuts” in the list of settings across the top of the window. Once inside “Shortcuts,” uncheck the box next to each shortcut to disable it.

As CharliePrynn pointed out, superuser.com would be a better place for this question.

I actually found the solution there: https://superuser.com/questions/531874/disable-alt-f1-keyboard-shortcut-in-cinnamon:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings panel-main-menu "[]"

plus logout & login
