Tips

Finding Keybindings

Run the keybindings viewer:

keybindings-show

Or view the config directly:

cat ~/.config/hypr/conf/bindings.conf

Adding Custom Bindings

Edit ~/.config/hypr/conf/bindings.conf:

# Format: bind = MODS, key, dispatcher, params
bind = SUPER, N, exec, nautilus
bind = SUPER SHIFT, C, exec, code

Removing Bindings

Comment out or delete the line:

# bind = SUPER, W, killactive

Binding Special Keys

Use wev to find key names:

wev | grep -A2 keycode
