Hi,

it would be nice if some feedback were provided when editing a gesture, i.e. draw a line where user drags the mouse. Now the result is only shown afterwards after you finished editing.

thanks

Yes yes yes!! Why cannot we just draw into the big empty area? Instead a small dialog pops up which does not even offer feedback. It is okay to have a “edit” button for not accidentally chaning the gesture but why do we need an additional dialog box? Why can‘t we just draw inside this big area or better draw on the screen itself? This feature is so not-matured…

As announced in https://pointieststick.com/2023/07/26/what-we-plan-to-remove-in-plasma-6/ and https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Plasma_6#Removals, I'm afraid KHotKeys has reached end-of-life in Plasma 6. Accordingly, all bug reports and feature requests for it must be closed now.

Most of what KHotKeys could do can already be done with the newer KGlobalAccel system in Plasma 6. A few features such as mouse gestures and triggering conditions based on changes to window states are not yet implemented in the new system. These will be added in the future if and when resources materialize for them, and/or when a kind soul submits patches to implement them! :) Meanwhile, the 3rd-party "Mouse Actions" app (https://github.com/jersou/mouse-actions) may be usable for implementing your own mouse gestures again.

Thanks for your understanding, everyone.
