[Solved] KDE: How to run plasmoid by pressing Meta key?

Hi guys,

I successfully configured Krunner to be run by pressing Meta key (alone). How do I do this for plasmoid? I'd like to have launchpadPlasma triggered by Meta key instead of Krunner.


Thanks!

Afaik "Meta" support for the application launcher is basically a hack that just sends Alt+F1 if Meta was pressed alone, try setting the invoking shortcut for this other plasmoid to Alt+F1

I did this and also executed the following command:

kwriteconfig5 --file ~/.config/kwinrc --group ModifierOnlyShortcuts --key Meta "launchpadPlasmaDark/App,,display"

But it didn't work (I restarted my computer).

For Krunner I used the following command:

kwriteconfig5 --file ~/.config/kwinrc --group ModifierOnlyShortcuts --key Meta "org.kde.krunner,/App,,display"
