In Omarchy, the Super key acts as the primary modifier key for almost all system navigation and shortcuts, functioning as the Windows key on standard keyboards or the Command key on a Mac layout
Based on standard Omarchy configurations and recent Hyprland window manager defaults, here are the top 10 essential Super key combinations you need to know for navigating your system:
1. Application Launcher
- Shortcut:
Super + Space - Action: Opens the App Launcher (often Rofi or Wofi) to quickly search for and open applications or execute system commands.
2. Terminate / Close Window
- Shortcut:
Super + W - Action: Immediately closes the active window or focused application.
3. Open Terminal Emulator
- Shortcut:
Super + Enter(orSuper + Tdepending on your version) - Action: Spawns a new terminal window (usually Kitty, Alacritty, or Foot).
4. Toggle Window Layout (Floating / Tiling)
- Shortcut:
Super + F - Action: Toggles the selected window between tiled mode and floating mode, allowing you to move and resize it freely.
5. System Config & Settings Menu
- Shortcut:
Super + Alt + Space - Action: Pulls up the core Omarchy System Configuration and setup menu.
6. Show Keybindings Cheat Sheet
- Shortcut:
Super + K(orSuper + /) - Action: Displays an on-screen shortcut reference overlay so you don’t have to memorize every combination.
7. Change Window Focus (Navigation)
- Shortcut:
Super + Arrow Keys(orSuper + H/J/K/Lfor Vim keys) - Action: Moves your active cursor and keyboard focus between open windows side-by-side or stacked.
8. Move Focused Window
- Shortcut:
Super + Shift + Arrow Keys(orSuper + Shift + H/J/K/L) - Action: Moves the physical position of the active window around your tiling workspace grid.
9. Switch Workspaces
- Shortcut:
Super + [1-9] - Action: Instantly switches your entire screen view to a specific virtual workspace (e.g.,
Super + 1for Workspace 1,Super + 2for Workspace 2).
10. Move Window to a Workspace
- Shortcut:
Super + Shift + [1-9] - Action: Sends the currently selected window to a different virtual workspace in the background without changing your active view.
If you want to customize these, let me know:
- Do you want to remap any of these shortcuts to different keys?
- Are you looking for shortcuts related to a specific workflow (like audio controls, system resource monitors, or dual-monitor setups)?
I can give you the exact lines to add to your Hyprland configuration file.
