Global Shortcut (Wayland & X11)

Due to security limitations in modern display servers like Wayland, applications are often restricted from registering global keybindings while they don't have focus.

This is why it is recommend setting up a system-level shortcut. This ensures the best performance and compatibility with your desktop environment.

1. Open Settings -> Keyboard -> View and Customize Shortcuts.
2. Go to Custom Shortcuts -> Add Shortcut.
3. Name: Miniclip Show
4. Command: miniclip show
5. Shortcut: Your preferred combo (e.g., Super+V or Ctrl+Alt+G).
