Verified keybind can be updated with dconf. Seems to be an issue with the Modal being drawn via gnome-tweaks.

Hi, for the moment please try to install xorg-xinput on your distribution.

The package xinput was already installed on my system. 😐

@gaganscott what is the path to change the keybind?

[blitz-io]

@pfunk1978 Using dconf-editor: /org/gnome/shell/extensions/tilix-dropdown/key.

[dwilkinson167]

@gaganscott What do I change in dconf-editor?

[mdheller]

I'm having the same issure. Please advise on how I can fix the "global not defined" issue

What the key folder? F10 it's not de best keybind

[blitz-io]

@dwilkinson167 @mdheller @hcisilio There are two options until the author fixes the issue.

1. Edit ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/TilixDropdown@[email protected]/prefs.js by removing global from each global.log line. Then restart your window manager via Alt + F2, type 'r' and press 'Enter'. The ui will then work through gnome-tweaks.

-or-

2. Manually add an entry via dconf: dconf write /org/gnome/shell/extensions/tilix-dropdown/key "['F10']"

[hcisilio]

It's worked! thanks!
