Bug ID: 430716
Summary: User-specified Hotkey or Key Sequence Buttons in
kdeconnect App
Product: kdeconnect
Version: unspecified
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: android-application
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Add the ability to create custom hotkeys in a similar manner as the "Run
Command" on the Android App, creating buttons that may be clicked on the phone
app to execute a sequence of user-specified key strokes such as `Ctrl+L`,
Ctrl+N`, or `Mod4+0`.
Include the modifiers: `Ctrl`, `Alt`, `Shift`, and the "windows mod key":
`Mod4`. Allow for multiple modifiers per sequence: `Mod4+Ctrl+Shift+Alt+1`
Could also add a means of typing in a key sequence in the phone app that does
not currently have a button by adding a textbox and send button, and then
passing the textbox contents to be typed on the desktop. This would also allow
for using the phone's clipboard by the user pasting in the contents in the
textbox of the phone app.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
[How I see the interface would function]
1. Pair phone and desktop
2. Click "Remote Input" on the phone app
3. Click on an icon next to the keyboard icon (a new added icon to show the
possible hotkey commands or key sequences)
4. Select a hotkey to send remotely to be executed on the desktop computer
5. Desktop computer executes the hotkey doing whatever it does within the
active desktop application.
OBSERVED RESULT
N/A
EXPECTED RESULT
The hotkey would activate in the active application just as it would if the
hotkey was entered by the keyboard locally on the desktop.
