Description
This is an accessibility issue, seems like it would be a simple addition.
To help work around some physical left hand issues I can set something like this in sway/swayfx
input type:keyboard {
xkb_layout us
xkb_variant altgr-intl
xkb_options compose:rctrl
}
bindsym Multi_key+left exec wtype -P home -p home
bindsym Multi_key+right exec wtype -P end -p end
bindsym Multi_key+down exec wtype -P next -p next
bindsym Multi_key+up exec wtype -P prior -p prior
and get a 'right hand only' solution for home/end/pgup/pgdown on a laptop without having to use the fn modifier.
In niri I can do
input {
keyboard {
xkb {
layout "us"
variant "altgr-intl"
options "compose:rctrl"
}
}
...
and wev sees rctrl as Multi_key (key 105), but it's not in valid modifiers in Configuration:-Input.md and niri doesn't recognize it for mapping.
YaLTeR@Niri said: If this modifier is recognized by xkb as such, then it needs to be added in Smithay for niri to support this kind of binding niri-wm/niri#1405
I opened a discussion but it's been ignored for almost a year.
Can we please get Multi_key added to the valid modifiers for Smithay?
