Feature request: shortcut to play/pause without opening menu

Open nerivera opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Currently, there is only a keyboard shortcut to open/close the menu, from which you can click the play/pause button to toggle the overlay. This means if I want to briefly turn off the overlay, I have to:

  1. Use keyboard shortcut to open the menu
  2. Move my mouse to the pause button
  3. Click on the pause button
  4. Use keyboard shortcut to close the menu
  5. Do what I wanted to do
  6. Use keyboard shortcut to open the menu
  7. Move my mouse to the play button
  8. Click on the play button
  9. Use keyboard shortcut to close the menu

It would be much more convenient if there were a keyboard shortcut to play/pause the overlay without opening the menu. That way, the above steps would be reduced to:

  1. Use keyboard shortcut to pause
  2. Do what I wanted to do
  3. Use keyboard shortcut to play

Hi, this sounds like a useful feature. I'd be happy to accept a PR if you feel like coding it

+1 for this feature

or at least keyboard bindning within open app for the Pause button itself so scripting via Keyboard Maestro or similar is feasible
