use_bind
Run a configured Hyprland keybind by its combo to execute the bound action directly; synthetic keypresses cannot trigger compositor binds, so use this for launchers or layout shortcuts.
Instructions
Run one of the user's own Hyprland keybinds by its combo (from the
binds tool), e.g. 'SUPER+F'. This executes the bound action directly
(the only reliable way: synthetic keypresses do not trigger compositor
binds). Use it to drive the owner's configured workflows: launchers,
layout shortcuts, scratchpads. then ('desktop'|'screenshot'|'ui'|'none')
appends the result to this call (handy after a launcher bind). Refused
while HYPRUSE_CONFINE is set or the background guarantee is on
(HYPRUSE_BACKGROUND=1): a bind runs an arbitrary compositor action
that cannot be scoped to a window.
