Basic WM controls
To control their window managers, most users rely on shortcuts based on Super. The ADM42 encourages this practice by providing Super on both sides.
- Primary actions:
Super+ letter - Secondary (or move) actions:
Super+Shift+ letter - Dangerous actions (quit/kill/...):
Super+Alt+ letter
Tiling and mouse
On tiling window managers, like i3, awesome or bspwm, it's typical to use Super in
conjonction with mouse for specific actions like moving or resizing windows.
For that reason it's better to use a firmware providing pending Super.
Useful key bindings
Consider these key combinations to control common tasks like cycling windows, launching a terminal or dmenu:
Super+TabSuper+BackSpaceSuper+SpaceSuper+Enter
Use both hands simultaneously to benefit of the Opposite MODs as TAPs reactivity.
Switching desktops
If one has no other usage for the F keys (F1 to F10), they can be used instead of combinations with numbers to switch deskop and move windows.
- Switch to desktop 1-10:
F1-F10 - Move window to desktop 1-10:
Shift+F1-F10
