Allow users to bind voice commands to specific modifier key sides (e.g.,
Right Ctrl only), preventing conflicts with common left-side shortcuts
like Alt+Tab or Ctrl+C.
- Expand SUPPORTED_SHORTCUTS from 3 to 9 entries (either/left/right)
- Add SHORTCUT_GROUPS for grouped display in settings UI
- Implement side-aware key matching in pynput and evdev backends
- Update settings dialog with grouped shortcut selector
- Add comprehensive tests for side-specific shortcuts
Closes#306
* feat(shortcuts): add push-to-talk mode as alternative to toggle
This commit implements push-to-talk functionality (Issue #252) as an
alternative to the existing double-tap toggle mode:
- Add keyboard shortcut mode setting (toggle vs push_to_talk)
- In push-to-talk mode: hold key to speak, release to stop
- Update both pynput and evdev backends to support press/release callbacks
- Add UI controls in settings dialog for mode selection
- Maintain backward compatibility with existing toggle mode as default
Closes#252

* fix(shortcuts): remove duplicate code blocks that broke settings dialog
The previous push-to-talk implementation had duplicate code blocks
in tray_indicator.py and settings_dialog.py that caused the settings
dialog to fail silently. This commit cleans up the duplicate code
while preserving the push-to-talk functionality.
Fixes issue where settings dialog would not open.
* fix(ui): add set_subtitle method to PreferenceRow class
The PreferenceRow class was missing a set_subtitle method, which is called by
_update_shortcut_ui_for_mode when switching between toggle and push-to-talk
modes. This caused an AttributeError that silently crashed the settings dialog
during initialization.
Also stores subtitle_label as instance variable for later updates.
* fix(keyboard): remove duplicate code and fix mode handling
Critical fixes for keyboard backends:
- evdev_backend.py: Removed duplicate __init__ and _handle_key_event methods
- pynput_backend.py: Removed duplicate __init__, _on_press, _on_release methods
- Both backends now properly handle toggle and push-to-talk modes
Fixed first_run_dialog.py:
- Added do_response() override to properly close dialog
- Added explicit destroy() call in show_first_run_dialog()
Fixed tray_indicator.py:
- Added _unregister_keyboard_callbacks() method
- Updated _setup_keyboard_shortcuts() to properly clean up old callbacks
- Updated update_shortcut() to properly handle mode switching
Fixed settings_dialog.py:
- Added set_subtitle() method to PreferenceRow class
- Updated UI text for push-to-talk mode
- Fixed _on_shortcut_changed to properly pass mode to callback
All 547 tests pass locally.
* feat(shortcuts): improve mode switching and add mode-aware display names
Key improvements:
- Add SHORTCUT_MODE_DISPLAY_NAMES for mode-specific shortcut names
- Add get_shortcut_display_name() function for mode-aware display
- Fix restart_with_shortcut() to properly save and restore all callbacks
- Fix update_shortcut() to properly handle mode changes
- Fix _setup_keyboard_shortcuts() to clear old callbacks before registering new ones
- Ensure only one type of callback is active at a time
This fixes issues where:
- Old callbacks remained registered after mode switch
- Single-tap triggered action after switching from push-to-talk to toggle
- Display names weren't appropriate for the selected mode
* fix(shortcuts): stabilize live mode switching callback lifecycle
* test(shortcuts): cover callback reset on mode transitions
* fix(shortcuts): remove super preset and migrate legacy config
* test(shortcuts): update coverage for super preset removal
* feat(shortcuts): add customizable keyboard shortcuts via GUI
Implement configurable keyboard shortcuts for toggling voice recognition,
allowing users to choose between Ctrl+Ctrl, Alt+Alt, Shift+Shift, or
Super+Super (Windows key) double-tap shortcuts.
Changes:
- Add shortcuts configuration section to settings dialog with dropdown
- Update keyboard backends (pynput and evdev) to support configurable
modifier keys for double-tap detection
- Add SUPPORTED_SHORTCUTS, SHORTCUT_DISPLAY_NAMES constants in base module
- Update KeyboardShortcutManager to accept and pass shortcut configuration
- TrayIndicator now reads shortcut from config on startup
- Add comprehensive tests for shortcut configuration and parsing
The default shortcut remains Ctrl+Ctrl for backward compatibility.
Changes take effect after app restart (noted in UI).
Closes#16
* feat(shortcuts): enable live shortcut switching without app restart
Add restart_with_shortcut() method to KeyboardShortcutManager that stops
the listener, updates the shortcut configuration, and restarts with the
new shortcut. The settings dialog now applies shortcut changes immediately
with visual feedback indicating success.
- Add restart_with_shortcut() to KeyboardShortcutManager
- Add update_shortcut() to TrayIndicator for exposing live updates
- Update SettingsDialog to use callback for immediate shortcut changes
- Show green success message when live switching succeeds
- Add 7 new tests for restart_with_shortcut functionality
* fix: use Python 3.8 compatible context manager syntax
Convert parenthesized context manager (Python 3.10+) to nested with
statements for Python 3.8 compatibility in test_keyboard_shortcuts.py
