EDIT: It should be possible to map the super key now via the GUI

Mapping Start/Super to something

If you are trying to map the windows-key to something different, the application might loose its focus. It requires editing the configuration file.

  1. open key-mapper and createa a new preset for your device

  2. insert code 125 into ~/.config/key-mapper/presets/your-device/your-preset.json

{
    "macros": {},
    "mapping": {
        "1,125,1": "b"
    }
}
  1. start key-mapper again to see "LEFTMETA" in the left column. You can also change it to map to something different in the UI now.

Mapping any key to Start/Super

use key_leftmeta in the right column
