Description

@alekhyareddy28

Summary of the new feature/enhancement

  • Right now Launcher uses the NHotKey.Wpf nuget package for handling keyboard shortcuts (like Alt+Space).
  • They have another set of code in the Shell Plugin to over ride Win+R keypress.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

  • To unify the way in which keyboard shortcuts are handled.
  • This must be similar to FancyZones and Keyboard Remapper - using low level keyboard hooks.
