Re: << Script not working in Linux Mint >>

Welcome to the AutoKey community, I. Camps!

This is a common problem.

The most likely problem is that you are using Wayland which is the new
default window server in Ubuntu 22.04 and newer.

You an verify this by opening a terminal and typing

echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE

If it says anything other than x11, then that's the problem and you can
fix it by manually selecting Xorg on your login screen when logging in to
your user account.

The easiest way to migrate your actions (scripts/phrases) to a new install
is to first install and run AutoKey. This creates the AutoKey
configuration tree and creates the settings metadata file for AutoKey
itself.

Terminate AutoKey.

Copy the desired actions (and their metadata files - .json) into the
configuration tree under $HOME/.config/autokey/data (or wherever you had
them before).

Restart AutoKey.

They should all be there in the files panel in the AutoKey main window and
should work.

If you have any scripts that refer to specific paths which are different
on the new installation (different user home directory, etc.), these will
have to be manually edited.

That above should solve most problems. If not, post again with more
details. etc.
