feat: options to disable shortcuts
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Some of the app's keyboard shortcuts overrides some of my personal shortcuts.
Describe the solution you'd like Since I don't use any of the extension's shortcuts, it would be bettor to have:
- an option to disable all shortcuts
- an option to restore the defaults (for those who need it)
- when a shortcut is in blank, it gets disabled
Describe alternatives you've considered
- an option to disable all shortcuts
- merge the keybinding of the app with the system configurations (Settings>Keyboard>Keyboard Shortcuts>Forge), so changing and (en/dis)abling an shortcut is handled by the system
- Detect keybinding conflicts inside the logic of the app
Additional context
- Fedora Silverblue 37
- gnome-shell-43.1-4.fc37.x86_64
- Forge version 60
Hi @realgrm - can you specify what shortcuts are conflicting with your system?
Hi @jmmaranan, mostly personal shortcuts using the Meta key, e.g. Meta+L, Meta+W...
But what I meant is that, as far as I'm concerned, there's no option to deactivate a shortcut. So, I have to create a random shortcut to a function that I'm not going to use right now.
And by creating this random shortcut I have to think if this new shortcut is going to overwrite another used by the system or other app, or other that I'm might use in the future. Remember that I'm not going to use it for this extension anyway.
Oh, and thanks for the extension btw, I'm waiting for a tilling like this on Gnome on Wayland for a long time.
Actually, I tested right now to set another shortcut (tested <Super>. and <Super>f) to a function in the 'Window shortcut' and 'Other shortcuts' section and it didn't save. I left and return the extension preferences and the default was still set.
@realgrm As described on the top of the window, you need to press Return to save changes (both setting a new shortcut or deleting it):
@abmantis my bad. In a hurry I ended up not reading @jmmaranan sorry for the waste of time.
Hi! I think this is still a good enhancement. Given how unintuitive the current experience is.
I second this proposal. I have a bunch of custom shortcuts on my Gnome desktop and installing Forge overides all of them. It's not hard to manually edit/delete Forge keyboard shortcuts, but a switch to disable all at once would be nice.
It would be even better if shortcuts are disable by default. This ensures no pre-existing shortcuts are broken, and user can assign their own shortcuts after installing.
Yeah, keybinding conflict detection is needed so that Forge will leave it alone. See #37. Otherwise, I initially intended it to be keyboard driven by design so shortcuts would always be enabled, I compromised by making it easy for users to change rather than fight it. I'll see if #37 would be feasible to do next few weeks
At the top, it is written: "Delete text to unset". But if I delete the text, press return (Enter key) and close the window, it gets reset to the default shortcut.
Hi @puspamadak, thanks for the report - assuming you were using the latest v69?
If you are, we introduced the Adwaita Preferences and looks like need more polish and testing. But we will roll forward with it, for now, I disabled that version while we sort it out in the next couple of days.
@puspamadak - this was caused by the Adwaita update for prefs. I added a PR here. https://github.com/forge-ext/forge/pull/240
In case it is helpful for anyone: all shortcuts can be disabled from the command line. You can also see the current shortcuts, and set them. See below.
Disable all:

- an option to disable all shortcuts
@jmmaranan Seems liek this would be quick to implement because it took me like a minute to manually remove all shortcuts through the UI

If you have installed the extension as sudo, from the fedora repositories for example, this file doesn't exist; at least I can't find it with locate [email protected] | grep schema ...
