Global Hotkey

What is it

The Global Hotkey shortcut can show and hide a dedicated or all Warp windows on your focused desktop regardless of whether the app is focused. You could customize the dedicated windows' pinned position and its width and height ratio relative to your active screen size. Note: Your new customization will apply the next time a Hotkey Window is created and not the currently opened one.

How to access it

Hotkey Window

  1. Open Settings > Features > Keys and select "Dedicated hotkey window" from the Global Hotkey dropdown to enable the feature.

  2. Configure the keybinding, the windows position, screen, and relative size or uncheck "Autohides on the loss of keyboard focus" which will cause the dedicated Hotkey Window to stay on top when triggered regardless of mouse or keyboard focus.

Show/Hide All Windows

  1. Open Settings > Features > Keys and select "Show/hide all windows" from the Global Hotkey dropdown to enable the feature.

  2. Configure your preferred keybinding.
