Questions[yakuake](ubuntu)

My goal: open Yakuake or Tilda terminal with Super + Grave (backtick, tilde, `) shortcut in Gnome. What I could achieve is only holding Super + pressing Grave twice.

A little background. By default Super + Grave is a shortcut for /org/gnome/desktop/wm/keybindings/switch-group So I disabled it in DConf editor.

Then when I just press Super + Grave (`) once, I just see ` symbol in Tilda, while Yakuake shows s` somehow (yes, with additional s letter). But pressing Grave twice works (though additional ` symbol gets typed, that is annoying).

What's interesting, when I install Drop Down Terminal Gnome Extension and set Super + Grave shortcut it works perfectly. But Drop Down Terminal is too simple for me.

I use Gnome 3.32 and International English layout + Russian keyboard layout.

Given that a user is using super+tab keys to see running applications, When the overlay modal is presented, Then how do you configure yakuake to be included in the icon set. It is currently only available via a hot key.

Ubuntu: 18.04

I am working with Yakuake and a global hotkey to quickly open and close it. However, when I have multiple monitors, Yakuake will pop up on the one monitor where the mouse pointer is currently located. To move it to a different screen, I have to close it, move the mouse to the correct screen, and then press the hotkey again.

How can I make Yakuake open always on one particular screen? System's main screen is OK, if general solutions are not available.

Yakuake doesn't apply settings from config on ubuntu 18.04, I looked around and found that there was a kde bug related to this so I also created a profile in .local/share/konsole and the settings are saved there but somehow yakuake doesn't apply the settings defined there.

I tried configuring it to always show on screen 2, if I change it from the UI, it moves to screen 2 but if I press F12 to hide/show it again it goes back to screen 1, but somehow the setting still shows as screen 2.

I have same settings in 2 places .config/yakuakerc and .local/share/konsole/myprofile

Here are the settings,

The most common Quake-style terminal in Gnome seem to be Guake and Tilda, but they can't split to show several shells in single tab like Yakuake can. Is there any alternative which can do so?
