[Feature Request]: Initial Script Tampering [kb_layout, scroll_factor, emoji] #123

Closed Somnius closed 2 months ago

Feature Request

Description

Some stuff that can be implemented upon install of the scripts, or otherwize

Use Case

from e.g. only one keyboard layout "en" to let them write en,gr to have english and greek keyboard layout
to add an option for right alt + e for € sign (or if not right alt is not available right super or ctrl+alt+E)
to change the scroll_factor for input on touch enabled devices (laptops) under UserSettings.conf bellow touchpad
to add alternative for emoji selector if needed, e.g. emote with command bind = $mainMod, period, exec, emote # open emoji selector ## paru -S emote ## not flatpak over UserKeybinds.conf
another one should be that if the user is on sub-par screen rez, like ~1300x800, identify that and make the kitty font size smaller over ~/.config/kitty/kitty.conf like font_size 10.0 or even 12.0

Thank you for your time and effort, these dotfiles are my daily driver and i enjoy them plenty!

you can easily add additional layout by SUPER E - edit user-settings look at kb_layout.
however I will consider this on future release to add more layout

for right alt + e for € sign (or if not right alt is not available right super or ctrl+alt+E)
- isnt it euro is keyboard dependent? not sure how to add some special characters by typing like how on windows

to change the scroll_factor for input on touch enabled devices (laptops) under UserSettings.conf bellow touchpadto

you already mentioned, you can easily just add by editing that file.

add alternative for emoji selector if needed, e.g. emote with command bind = $mainMod, period, exec, emote # open emoji selector ## paru -S emote ## not flatpak over UserKeybinds.conf

you can easily add once you installed the package

another one should be that if the user is on sub-par screen rez, like ~1300x800, identify that and make the kitty font size smaller over ~/.config/kitty/kitty.conf like font_size 10.0 or even 12.0

thanks for this. I will add it the function when choosing resolution for rofi

Thank you about the font, i know about the other issues that are easy to tamper configs and do some, i'm just suggesting stuff for you to test out even once ;)

Also another suggestion about hyprlock.conf to uncomment path to screenshot instead of original glass wallpaper for lock screen

        path = screenshot   # screenshot of your desktop
        #path = $HOME/.config/hypr/wallpaper_effects/.wallpaper_modified   # NOTE only png supported for now

About euro symbol, maybe a key press call for a script like

xdotool type "€"

or maybe with xclip and paste.

printf "€" | xclip -selection clipboard
xdotool key ctrl+v

I've just tested out xdotool key AltGr+e and didn't work .. strange..

Just a suggestion, many people want to bind SUPER + E for other purposes, maybe switch to SUPER+SHIFT+E cause it's widely used ?

JaKooLit commented 3 months ago

super E is for the quick edit

super alt e is configured for emoji selector

You can change the bindings at any time. But most people are now used to SUPER + E plus the docs, ettc.

I would suggest keeping it as is

no worries

not planning to change anything

as I mentioned somewhere on some readme's or probably on wiki, cant remember, that can change keybinds only if presented with a valid arguments (i.e., universal keybinds),
