Great #wayland is forcing me to buy a new keyboard as there's no support for custom shortcuts any more, and hasn't been for years under it, so unlikely to suddenly get sorted...
@falken I'm sorry this is complete BS apparently from KDE. Global shortcuts work just fine under Gnome and in any WM I've tried so far.
I mean, it's kinda both I think? I'm not entirely certain how Gnome does its thing even though I use it, maybe Mutter intercepts any keypress before it reaches an application, but "simulating keypresses" sounds exactly like the kind of thing wayland intentionally forbids.
However, take that with a massive grain of salt because I do not comprehend why they're wanting to simulate keystrokes in the first place, so my opinion is bound to be flawed somewhere.
@Isofruit @fedops to add insult to injury, there's a project in the #kubuntu repo., `Input Remapper`, that manages to do, but you have to manually start it, providing a password each time, and it's spectacularly over the top compared to what #kde used to be able to do: turn the "help" button on my keyboard into "Ctrl+C"
