Hide menu?

[dpavlic]

Firstly, thank you for the LOVELY package. Coming from vim, hydra combined with major / pretty mode hydra is a lovely alternative to the Evil impedance mismatch.

What I am wondering is if there is a way to bind a key to hide the menu while still keeping the hydra active? This seems to exist in the regular hydra (abo-abo/hydra#301 (comment)) but I am wondering how I'd recreate something like that with the pretty hydra?

Thanks!

Hi sorry for the super super late response. I know it has been a very long time. I haven't been actively working on emacs stuff due to work and family and I finally got some time again. I didn't know about this feature and it seems pretty cool! Keen to implement it into major/pretty hydra macros.

I'm thinking of an extra keyword parameter :show-hide-key which when provided adds a key that toggles the visibility of the menu.

(pretty-hydra-define jp-window (:foreign-keys warn :title jp-window--title :quit-key "q" :show-hide-key "?")
  ("Actions"
   (("TAB" other-window "switch")
    ("x" ace-delete-window "delete")
    ("m" ace-delete-other-windows "maximize")
    ("s" ace-swap-window "swap")
    ("a" ace-select-window "select"))

   "Resize"
   (("h" move-border-left "←")
    ("j" move-border-down "↓")
    ("k" move-border-up "↑")
    ("l" move-border-right "→")
    ("n" balance-windows "balance")
    ("f" toggle-frame-fullscreen "toggle fullscreen"))

   "Split"
   (("b" split-window-right "horizontally")
    ("B" split-window-horizontally-instead "horizontally instead")
    ("v" split-window-below "vertically")
    ("V" split-window-vertically-instead "vertically instead"))

   "Zoom"
   (("+" zoom-in "in")
    ("=" zoom-in)
    ("-" zoom-out "out")
    ("0" jp-zoom-default "reset"))))
