For some reason, autokey shortkey doesnt work on command line action for example, terminal or changing folder name.

Except that, every app works fine.
I would greatly appreciate any assistance or guidance in resolving this problem.

Here's the background information:
Ubuntu version: 22.04.2 LTS
AutoKey version: 0.96
CPU: Intel i5-1340
GPU: Intel Iris Xe graphics

Thank you

  • Note that Autokey works on Xorg. So if you use Wayland, the default on Ubuntu 22.04, it will only work if the program does not natively run on Wayland (i.e., on Xorg through xwayland). – vanadium Aug 13 '23 at 14:38
  • Thank you so much! I fixed it by following introduction chainging WaylandEnable https://askubuntu.com/questions/1410256/how-do-i-use-x-instead-of-wayland-on-22-04 – jaylee1 Aug 14 '23 at 07:50

by changing the Wayland option it works perfectly

You can enable the X using the terminal. Open the terminal and run the command:

$ sudo nano /etc/gdm3/custom.conf

There you will find or commented

WaylandEnable=True

change it to

WaylandEnable=false

And restart the system
