Feature request: have a keybinding to toggle the notes #8

Open StoicIndividual opened 3 years ago

StoicIndividual commented 3 years ago

I have been using this application for a bit now and I love it, the only minor issue that I have is that there is no toggle keybinding so I have to use my mouse to click on the applet to view my notes, this isn't a big deal but can get tedious, will there be such a feature in the future?

It's on my to-do list (in fact it's probably been there longer than anything else). This was mitigated somewhat by the addition of an option allowing the notes to be shown in the window list (and therefore makes it possible to alt-tab), but I would like to still implement this eventually for people like me who don't want it cluttering the window list. The reason I haven't implemented it yet is that it's non-trial to implement a global keybinding that will work with all window managers (even more complicated if I want to support Wayland as I suspect it's something that's delegated to the wm there).

Awesome work!!! I'm using this tool a lot, would be great if it could have a toggle shortcut. sticky opens it, but the sticky window opens too and I'd like to use it without. Maybe with a flag?

edit: didn't know about the sticky command.
