Custom keys

Choose Custom keys… for an edge to make it send your own shortcuts. (The ready-made Switch tabs (Alt+Tab) entry is fixed; its Change the keys… button turns it into Custom keys, starting from Alt+Tab.)

#Setting a shortcut

  1. Pick a preset, or click Record next to Slide right presses and press the keys.
  2. Do the same for the other direction.
  3. Tick Hold shared modifiers while sliding for Alt+Tab-style pickers: the modifiers both shortcuts share (Alt) stay down until you lift your finger.

#Shortcuts the system keeps

Your system keeps a few combinations to itself (Alt+Tab, anything with the Windows or Super key), so the Record button can't capture them. Type them in the box instead. Shortcut text looks like Ctrl+Shift+Tab, Alt+Tab, Win+Ctrl+Right (Win is the Super key on Linux), Ctrl+PageDown or F11.
