On-Screen Display or Floating Menu whilst ⌘ is held.

Hey all,

So I'm looking for a way to let me know when I have my ⌘ key held down. Ideally this would stay up on thes screen for as long as the key is held. The reason I want this is due to how I've layered things in my ZMK Mechanical Keyboard and frequent mistakes I am making thinking I am activating a layer when in fact I am pressing the CMD key next to it.

I believe this can be achieved best via Floating Menus but I have no idea how to set it up. Anyone down to lend a hand?

I'd like to add that I've tried looking for an app dedicated to this task specifically, and unfortunately they're all not very configurable in terms of which keys to show. I really only need the CMD key to show when it is pressed.

Many thanks

If it's just about showing something when cmd is held, the "Show HUD" action triggered via a key sequence
would be most performant:

cmd_notification.bttpreset (6.3 KB)

If you need more customization, a floating menu can be used:
cmd_menu.bttpreset (32.3 KB)

Ah! Yes, this is exactly what I need! Key Sequences and Floating Menus are the two BTT trigger categories that I don't have experience with :sweat_smile:

Thanks Andreas :raised_hands:t3:
