Using omadora

First steps

The shortcuts that cover most of your day, and a tour of the bar.

Super is the Windows/Command key. Press Super+. (or Super+/) at any time to see every keybinding on one screen, generated live from your sway configuration. Type to filter.

Coming from Omarchy? Most of its shortcuts work here too: Super+Space, Super+T, Super+Escape, Super+M, Alt+Tab and the Super+Ctrl panel keys. The exception is Super+H/J/K/L, which omadora keeps for vim-style movement.

The essentials

A tour of the bar

The bar runs along the bottom of every screen.

Left: LAUNCH, your workspaces (urgent ones glow red), the current media track, and a red ● REC timer while you’re recording the screen.

Center: the date and time.

Right, from left to right:

Item Click Other
App tray icons Activate Right-click for the app’s menu
Quick settings (cog) Theme, brightness, warmth (night light: off/auto/on), keep awake, Do Not Disturb, and the screenshot, clipboard and shortcut tools Shows a cup while keep awake is on, and a crossed bell in Do Not Disturb
Volume Audio mixer Right-click mutes · scroll to adjust · shows a crossed mic when the microphone is muted

Bluetooth Devices Right-click toggles power
Bell Notification center Right-click toggles Do Not Disturb
System (battery · power) Battery, CPU/memory/temperature, power profiles, lock, suspend, log out, reboot, power off Turns red when the battery is low

Every popup is keyboard driven: its bottom line shows the keys, and Esc closes it.
