[Solved]Qtile- numbers row??
Hi guys
I'm new to Qtile and I have a problem to bind the mod key with the numbers row.
I use this syntax:
key([mod], "1", lazy.spawn("firefox")),
when i reload Qtile config after modifying the file, I don't get en error, but the key combination is not working!
I've looked on the arch wiki and the Qtile documentation and I didn't find if the number row is usable or not!
Can someone help me please!

Re: [Solved]Qtile- numbers row??
From what I see, [mod] is ambiguous and you should use [mod#] to specify which "mod" key you want to use, and you can use 'xmodmap' to list the available options.

Thank you for your input, but mod is defined as mod4 in top of the config file and it working fine with other keys except the numbers row!

According to the qtile github page, they have an active IRC channel. You might get better help there.

Thank you guys for your inputs, but I solved the problem! Apparently, I had an extra space somewhere. The following syntax works :
Key([mod], "1", lazy.spawn("firefox"),desc="Launch firefox"),
