Sequence of keys to trigger an action

Configuration question
1

Hi all,

I’m not sure if this is possible. I want to put all my window commands (e.g. move to left / right of screen) behind a sequence of commands. So I want to press Fn-W for window mode, and then if I press H it goes to the left, if I press L it goes to the right… It’s inspired by my vim setup which does something like this.

I’m not sure if this is possible or not with the command macros?

Thanks

Matt

Hard to tell if you don’t tell us which key sequences you want your UHK to produce ¯\(ツ)/¯.

(Or, to be more precise and answer exactly what you have asked: “Yes, I am pretty sure it is possible.”)

Hi

Umm, sorry, maybe I wasn’t clear. So I want to press Fn-E (imagine that’s activated a window mode). I’d then release these keys. Then If I press H I want that to move the window to the left - I’m less bothered about "how to move the window to the left - I just need to send a certain chord (Shift-Mod-LeftArrow). It’s the bit about how can I make it activated by first Fn-E, and then H.

Does that make sense?

Oh I see, sorry, I should have understood that from the first post.

One way:

  • fn+e to toggleLayer fn2
  • fn2+h to
tapKey LSLG-leftArrow
untoggleLayer

Another way:

  • fn+e to oneShot holdLayer fn2
  • fn2+h to tapKey LSLG-leftArrow

Yet another way:

  • fn+e to:
ifGesture 21 final tapKey LSLG-leftArrow
ifGesture 15 final tapKey LSLG-downArrow
ifGesture 16 final tapKey LSLG-upArrow
ifGesture 17 final tapKey LSLG-rightArrow

That’s great, thanks. The ifGesture looks like a nice solution to me, I’ll go with that one :slight_smile:
