Frequent crashes after changing Hotkeys

Open max-sixty opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

The app looks great at first glance!

But I'm trying to set the shortcuts to something similar to what I use on Mac, and struggling:

  • I'm trying to set c-a-p & c-a-n to "Swap Focus Counterclockwise / Clockwise"
  • I'm trying to set c-a-j & c-a-k to "Move Focus Previous / Next Screen"

But after changing these settings:

  • "Swap Focus Counterclockwise / Clockwise" works well
  • "Move Focus Previous / Next Screen" doesn't work, and Amethyst crashes after a few tries

I eventually need to manually delete the Settings file, since the app crashes enough for it to be difficult to restore.


FWIW when I don't change the settings, c-a-n for "Next Screen" doesn't work.

I'm using the latest 2.0.4.1 Alpha

Hello @max-sixty,

thank you for notifying. I will give a look. I spent very few hours on amethyst recently but I hope to recover. There are a lot of possible reasons for the behavior you report.

I will let you know.

That's the only program I fell comfortable using after being on DWM for years. Unfortunately, I'm having this same issue. Hope that it'll be fixed soon. Thanks

This seems to be fixed! Thank you.

I have another large issue, I'll open a new issue
