I've had this trigger the popup menu when there is another shortcut that binds the Super key in combination with something else. Say, if I had something under Super+R, then the menu would also open. Though maybe this has been patched out in the newer versions, I remember that issue being the case in an XFCE desktop from 2020.
But other than that, this is indeed a really nice and usable setup!
- andai 4y agoSame, so I rebound whiskermenu to Meta+Space.
- iza 4y agoI worked around this issue using xcape to map my Super key to another key combo: xcape -e "Super_L=Alt_L|F1" Then set the keyboard shortcut for xfce4-popup-whiskermenu to the new combo (Alt+F1 in this case). This allows other Super shortcuts to work without triggering whiskermenu.
- raisin_churn 4y agoksuperkey[0] addresses this, though it is unfortunately not widely packaged so you likely have to compile it. I haven't used it in a while, but it worked well when last I did. [0] https://github.com/hanschen/ksuperkey https://github.com/hanschen/ksuperkey
