Hotkey should bring focus to fsearch
It's a habit by now to press my hotkey and bring up fsearch but in the case when it's already open, it doesn't focus. Not a big deal but it makes me have to reach for my mouse and I don't like having to reach for the mouse :).
I'm on EndeavorOS w/ KDE and Wayland compositor so maybe the feature is already implemented and perhaps it's an issue upstream?
this can be done, i use super + f as my main hotkey. On kde i did this in the system settings under hotkeys add application and assign shortcut. on gnome its the same thing.
I changed it to super + f but still the same. It doesn't focus when already open.
Thats strange, it does on my end, im not sure why that would not work for you. thats the only thing i had to do to get that to launch a window and be able to type without having to click in to (activated focus on launch).
On Linux Mint Cinnamon 21 opening fsearch via the system menu listing or a hotkey (programmed via cinnamon-settings keyboard) it is focused. Although, if it's opened in another work-space, the shortcut does nothing, but via the system menu it will 'pop' you to it in that work-space, odd but probably intentional design. So it's probably not something that fsearch is responsibly for, but more of a distro specific thing.
I'm on KDE with Wayland. It seems to have issue bringing a couple apps like fsearch and Haruna to focus when in the background. When open but in the background, I just get an fsearch busy icon and it doesn't come to focus. Might be a Wayland issue or KDE, not sure.
I bound fsearch to Super+F and it works perfectly well for me (Using Debian 12).
