for lubuntu , don't know simple gui way. maybe want wait knows.
know manual modifying way of lubuntu-rc.xml , file. not easy gui , think human understandable (if read file little can understand must add , how add).
if want follow way , open lxterminal ,

code:

leafpad .config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml

when modifying file , save , run in terminal

code:

 openbox --restart

changes take place.

for gnome-classic i think if go system > keyboard , able add shortcuts. (i not sure ,if remember correct) easier , , gui way.
