New setting to minimize Hotkey Window upon loss of focus
This might sound like a strange idea for a new setting, but would benefit the way I use the iTerm2 Hotkey Window.
I use the iTerm2 Hotkey Window for running chat programs like weechat
, and have bound showing the iTerm2 Hotkey Window to ALT+`. This works globally and allows bringing up the Hotkey Window from any app.
I will typically do this to reference a chat message, then use CMD+Tab to get back to my web browser.
Then when, I have Googled my answer, I will typically CMD+Tab back to iTerm.app to paste a command.
Unfortunately, at this point, the iTerm main window is still obscured by the Hotkey Window with the chat messages.
This requires me to have to do ALT+` to minimize the Hotkey Window.
So, what would be more ergonomic for me is a setting that automatically minimizes the Hotkey Window whenever iTerm.app regains focus.
I don't know if this can be scripted or makes sense within the settings interface.
