Ability to remap and/or disable individual hotkeys #8

arngo commented 2 years ago

Personally I don't find some of the hotkeys useful, so it would be nice to be able to disable/unmap them to prevent accidental activation.

G-dH commented 2 years ago

I'll think about it. What features are useful for you, if I may ask?

arngo commented 2 years ago

The ones I think are most useful to me:

left/right - window selection
up/down - workspace selection
shift + arrow keys - move switcher across monitors
space - show window
W - close selected window
ctrl-W - close application of selected window
N - new window of selected application
C - close all windows in list belonging to the same application
X - move selected window to current workspace and monitor

Great extension, thanks!

I really appreciate your feedback, thank you. Btw, did you notice that the X hotkey now works for apps as well, so you can move multiple windows at once? I'll think about adding the option to disable unwanted hotkeys, if you have any other suggestions let me know.

Customizable hotkeys have been added for most actions. Up to two characters can be assigned to each action, one can represent a keystroke without Shift and the other with Shift, which is useful for non [A-Z] keys. You can also delete entries of actions you don't use to disable them.
