Tilix: Quake hotkey

[qazip]

What's the quake hotkey/shortcut? In preferences, there are settings for Quake mode. However, I can't find any option, under shortcuts, for quake mode.

There isn't an option within Terminix, the idea is to set a hot key within your desktop environment to run terminix --quake.

As a note to the documentation linked, while it says that quake mode won't work on Wayland without invoking X, I was able to do so just fine.

EDIT: Having tried it both ways, I see now that using the X backend offers a better drop-down terminal experience. Unfortunately the command GDK_BACKEND=x11 tilix --quake cannot be executed as a keyboard shortcut (according to my Fedora27 + Gnome setup), so instead I'm launching my main Tilix window with GDK_BACKEND=x11, and the quake window follows suite.

I still do not have any idea what is the shortcut to open/hide tilix. As a long time terminator user I would like something that works on Wayland but how should I do it?

I am testing tilix on gnome 3.38 and the extensions are not working for some reason!?

You can configure keyboard shortcuts for Gnome in Gnome's settings menu. There you can bind keyboard shortcuts to arbitrary commands. For the command to use see the Tilix documentation at
