Hotkey

Nyrna can be invoked conveniently with a hotkey.

tip

You can use something like AntiMicroX to trigger this hotkey with your gamepad, allowing you to suspend/resume your game with just your controller.

Wayland​

Wayland does not support global hotkeys, so the other methods described in this document will not work on Wayland. However, you can still use your desktop environment's built-in hotkey functionality to trigger the CLI method described below.

  2. Click the Add New button → Command or Scipt

  4. Click Save and set the desired hotkey.
