Hotkeys don't work on Linux #4

Open lanthaler opened 6 years ago

lanthaler commented 6 years ago

Hi,

Broadcasting itself works, but none of the hotkeys I tried (including the default ones) work. Additionally, the Super modifier seems to be dropped:

chabou commented 6 years ago

Thanks for your feedback.

If I understand your issue correctly, you can't specify super key for hotkeys?

If you use another keys, it works?

lanthaler commented 6 years ago

Sorry, somehow I missed your reply. If I specify super in a hotkey, it is silently dropped as shown in screenshot. Other modifier keys show up in the menu (tried, e.g., shift+pagedown) but they don't work either. The only way to activate broadcasting is to go to the menu and click on the desired entry.

Hello @lanthaler @chabou Hotkeys are also not working on Windows because of the Command modifier use. I just create a PR for fixing the problem on Windows and on Linux.

Otherwise, you could edit by yourself the file index.js and replace Command with Control or CommandOrControl.

Regards,

lanthaler commented 5 years ago

Thanks, that seems to be a separate issue though as I neither use Command nor Control as you can see in the screenshots in the issue description.

Herrox commented 5 years ago

@lanthaler True, sorry about that. However, have you still try with others modifier like Control or Shift?

lanthaler commented 5 years ago

Yes, that didn't seem to work either on Linux if I remember correctly

azwinabdul commented 5 years ago

me too have some problem, i already tried with shift, alt but it didn't work. i use ubuntu 18.04.1 and hyper 2.1.2

I'm also able to reproduce this issue on Linux Mint using Hyper 3.0.2 with hyper-broadcast. I can broadcast across panes if I manually go to File -> Broadcast Input - however, the hot keys & alternative combinations such as adding the super key do not work for me at all.

Any update for linux?

chabou commented 3 years ago

I'll try to tackle this but I don't use Linux right now.

A PR will be really welcome 🙏

mathiasmag commented 2 years ago

I cannot create a PR because these are technologoes I do not have experience with.

However, getting access to Linux cannot be the biggest obsticle. I understand lack of time to maintain though.

Being able to do this from the keyboard would make the tool at least twice as useful for me. Probably more like 10x.

I suspect that you would need to unbind any existing keystrokes that might be conflicting. At the operating system level gnome or kde I'd suggest that you verify that these keys are not assigned...
