Hi

I am using a hotkey window as my "hub" for managing my other item2 windows.

I have keys defined to open. profile, and that works.

But what does not work, is CMD-t to create a new tab, as the command is send to the app from which ai "called" the hotkey window (in my case double CTRL). Is this a setting I can change, or do I have to define a keyboard shortcut for that?

Thanks,

Rainer

Have you enabled “exclude from dock and cmd-tab app switcher”? That could prevent keys from being sent to the app in this situation.

Nope - I haven't. And this only happens with the hotkey window - with the others, the Men bar shows iTerm. Please see the screenshot after enabling the hotkey window and clicking in iTerm and entering text.
