The keyboard shortcuts and the extra mouse buttons are not working

Open kenshiwara opened this issue 6 years ago • 4 comments

It is a great file manager, but I am having the following issues with it:

  1. The normal keyboard shortcuts are not working for me. The backspace, for example, is bringing up the search field instead of going back.

  2. The side mouse buttons for back and forward are also not working out.

  3. The keyboard shortcut button from the menu is not working out.

  4. [Feature Request] - There is also no option for changing the keyboard shortcuts.

Thank you for reading my notes.

P.S: Please check the attachments for my system information. selection_001

Same issue was rised also in #34 and #106 . Keybord/Mouse nav is not implemented.

I don't plan to add support for this. If someone can implement this I'll be happy to merge it.

Support for navigating to previous folder with backspace key will be added in v18.6

Hey, there are three issues like this one, so I'll just comment on all. Implementing this should be as easy as using a key bind that listens to the XF86Back and XF86Forward buttons, should work for most keyboards. It could also be useful to set key binds for XF86HomePage, XF86Favorites, XF86Search and XF86Menu for home folder, bookmarks, search and context menu respectively. I'd do it myself, but I lack the programming knowledge.
