what hotkey do you use to open the menu?

[dinerov]

I can't choose a hotkey so I don't accidentally open it. what are your hotkeys?

[Schneegans]

I have mapped the additional buttons of my mouse to Ctrl+1, Ctrl+2, Ctrl+3, and Ctrl+4 and use these to open my menus.

I use ` for now , its rarely used and easy to reach , best solution is to just map a weird hotkey you'd never use in any software like ctrl+alt+shifft"; and then map this to a mouse button , but my current mouse is not that sophisticated

I use Windows key with personal TapHoldManager fork. One press - invoke Flow Launcher, double press - invoke Kando:

allApps := TapHoldManager()
allApps.add("~LWin", LWin_AllApps)


LWin_AllApps(taps, state) {  
    if (A_PriorKey && A_PriorKey != 'LWin')
        return   ; ignore win+... combo

	if (state = -1) {
		if (taps = 1)
			return SendInput('^{sc009}')        ; Flow Launcher

        SendInput('^9') 		 	            ; Kando
	} else if !state && (taps = 2) {
        SendInput('^!-')  		                ; cmder
	}
}
