Hi,
I would like to show keyboard shortcuts being pressed while recording my screen with Spectacle on KDE neon 6.3, and I found apps that could do that but not on Wayland…
Does anyone know any ?
Thank you
I found one that works when I needed it, IIRC it’s called screenkey, it works on Wayland but I think it needs to run as root for this to work.
I don’t know where to get it but it was in AUR if you use Arch.
Hi,
The official README says :
Screenkey cannot currently capture any input directed to native Wayland programs
🤔
Hmm, maybe when I tested the programs I ran were not native Wayland, or I’m missing something.
Sorry.
This one advertises support for wayland, try it out maybe?
That’s interesting, unfortunately there’s no packaging at all for Debian-based distros 😭
There are deb packages for aosc os (whatever that is 😄) and all deps are probably in the repos, so maybe it can help.
Found it : https://repo.aosc.io/debs/pool/stable/main/s/showmethekey_1.14.0-0_amd64.deb
No luck though :

Hmm, I’m looking for the URL of their APT repository but I’m not finding it 🤔
