Is there a way to access the nagbar also without a mouse? I would like to press a nagbar button with Return or close it with Esc and focus and unfocus it from keyboard. Is there a way?Sun, 09 Aug 2015 01:52:42 +0000https://faq.i3wm.org/question/6412/focus-nagbar-with-keyboard/https://faq.i3wm.org/question/6412/focus-nagbar-with-keyboard/?answer=6414#post-id-6414Afaik this is not possible, but what you can definitely do is display a message of your liking in the statusbar by entering the 'system mode' and then trigger certain actions by predefined keys. Those you can assign with a simple script like [**THIS**](https://github.com/manjaro/packages-community/blob/master/i3exit/i3exit) In your **~.i3/config** you can use somehting like: # Set shut down, restart and locking features bindsym $mod+0 mode "$mode_system" set $mode_system (l)ock, (e)xit, switch_(u)ser, (s)uspend, (h)ibernate, (r)eboot, (Shift+s)hutdown mode "$mode_system" { bindsym l exec --no-startup-id i3exit lock, mode "default" bindsym s exec --no-startup-id i3exit suspend, mode "default" bindsym u exec --no-startup-id i3exit switch_user, mode "default" bindsym e exec --no-startup-id i3exit logout, mode "default" bindsym h exec --no-startup-id i3exit hibernate, mode "default" bindsym r exec --no-startup-id i3exit reboot, mode "default" bindsym Shift+s exec --no-startup-id i3exit shutdown, mode "default" # exit system mode: "Enter" or "Escape" bindsym Return mode "default" bindsym Escape mode "default" }Sun, 09 Aug 2015 23:47:03 +0000https://faq.i3wm.org/question/6412/focus-nagbar-with-keyboard/?answer=6414#post-id-6414
