As you can see in the image below, I am missing the custom shortcuts menu item.

image

It appears to have been moved to the normal shortcuts item, with no way to add new custom shortcuts.

As you can see my old custom shortcut is still available (and functional), but there is no option to add additional ones.

It used to be the case that you could create shortcuts that would execute arbitrary commands, but no longer. Is there a way to fix this?

It looks like you are missing the package khotkeys

I looked for that before but it is definitely installed.


I'll try reinstalling it just in case

Please always post terminal or other texts as text, just like garuda-inxi, not as images.

Can you try just rebooting your machine to see if it makes a difference? Your inxi indicates you took an update but did not reboot afterward.

I tried reproducing this on one of my KDE installs, but I cannot--mine are working correctly and provide the option that you indicate is missing:

I've had this problem for a while (since updating to 5.25 I think), rebooting does not do anything.

The image you provided allows you to set a keybinding for the 'search' action. I can do the same:

The option to add a new action is missing :frowning:

Weird... I can see mine just fine (searching "custom shortcuts" in settings brought it up). The only thing that I can see from your garuda-inxi that could be a factor that is different, is that you are on a Wayland session. Makes me wonder if this somehow is a Wayland session specific bug since you already checked for khotkeys.

Oh good point. Let me check if it works in X

Edit: Yes, it works.

What's even weirder is that the shortcuts keep working when in Wayland, so I don't understand why the option to set them is disabled in Wayland. Thanks for the help, at least now I know to go into X when I need to edit my shortcuts :sweat_smile:

As Kayo mentioned it could be a Wayland bug. I haven’t seen that issue logged on bugs.kde.org, but I’m new to learning Wayland so I don’t know if bugs are logged at the same place as X.
Either way it could be worth you give them a shout about it. :slight_smile:
