SUMMARY Since KDE 4 I used to rebind the META key to launch Krunner. This worked also fine in Plasma 6.0.5 but since todays fedora update to 6.1 this is not working anymore. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Tried to reeanable with: `kwriteconfig6 --file ~/.config/kwinrc --group ModifierOnlyShortcuts --key Meta "org.kde.kglobalaccel,/component/org_kde_krunner_desktop,invokeShortcut,_launch"` 2. restart OBSERVED RESULT Meta Key now doesnt do anything at all. Not even opening the Start Menu nor Krunner EXPECTED RESULT Krunner opens on META key The ~/.config/kwinrc says: [ModifierOnlyShortcuts] Meta=org.kde.kglobalaccel,/component/org_kde_krunner_desktop,invokeShortcut,_launch If I run it manually: `qdbus org.kde.kglobalaccel /component/org_kde_krunner_desktop invokeShortcut _launch` it works and krunner opens as expected. But no chance to bind it to just meta. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Ultramarine Linux lostumbrella 40 (KDE Plasma Edition) x86_64 KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.3.0 Qt Version: 6.7.1 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Kernel: 6.9.4-200.fc40.x86_64 (64-bit) Wayland on Mesa kwin 6.1.0
6.1 introduced proper support for modifier-only shortcuts. Can you try removing that fragment from kwinrc and setting the shortcut using the system settings? It works brilliantly here.
