Shortcut and Hotkeys
LinguaX shortcuts help you trigger actions without leaving your current task.
What You Can Do
- open LinguaX quickly
- trigger mapped actions
- reduce repetitive pointer navigation
Action Types
- input-source direct switching
- media/system actions
- app launch and utility actions
- custom script actions (AppleScript or Shell script)
Script Action Templates
Built-in examples include:
- toggle dark/light mode
- toggle system mute
- restart Dock
- control Spotify playback
- copy current Finder path
- clear clipboard
Safety and Permissions
- scripts run locally on your Mac
- first run may request Automation permission for controlled apps
Conflict Handling
LinguaX should warn when shortcuts conflict with macOS or existing app-level shortcuts.
Setup Checklist
