Setting Hotkeys

Hotkeys turn Sink Switch into a power-user tool. This guide helps you map keys on different environments.

Linux (GNOME)

  1. Open Settings > Keyboard.
  2. Click View and Customize Shortcuts > Custom Shortcuts.
  3. Add a new shortcut:
    • Name: Sink Switch Next
    • Command: sink-switch next
    • Shortcut: e.g., Super + Alt + S

Linux (KDE Plasma)

  1. Open System Settings > Shortcuts > Custom Shortcuts.
  2. Right-click > New > Global Shortcut > Command/URL.
  3. Under Action, enter: sink-switch next.

Windows (AutoHotkey)

The easiest way to set hotkeys on Windows is via AutoHotkey. Create a script or edit the provided one:

; Example AHK script
^!s::Run("sink-switch.exe next",, "Hide") ; Ctrl + Alt + S

The Go version also includes a Shortcut Manager within the Dashboard settings for non-AHK users.
