Describe your issue / feature…
I noticed one of my keybinds wasn’t working anymore as it used to. I don’t know whether it has anything to do with the upcoming Lua switch, but I did not change anything in my config and my keyboard is working and in all the correct modes. I also tried the command of the keybind to be sure that that still works as it is supposed to, and it does.
The line that configures the keybind I’m trying is this:
bind = $mainMod ALT, Print, exec, grim -g “$(slurp)” $(xdg-user-dir PICTURES)/Screenshots/$(date +‘%Y%m%d_%Hh%Mm%Ss_grim.png’)
Instead it runs this keybind (which didn’t happen before):
bind = ALT, Print, exec, grim $(xdg-user-dir PICTURES)/Screenshots/$(date +‘%Y%m%d_%Hh%Mm%Ss_grim.png’)
It feels like the $mainMod + ALT combination is not being detected?
I don’t know whether this is a bug or something of my doing, I’m a bit confused. And it also seems that Hyprlang should still be supported so that wouldn’t be it you’d think…
