How to use Caps lock as FN keys on KDE plasma (GUI only, no command typing required)

Tested on Kubuntu 24.04.1 LTS

  • Go to "system setting" -> "keyboard" -> "Advanced" -> "Caps lock behavior" -> Select "Make Caps Lock an additional Hyper".
  • Click apply and reboot (optional. sometimes setting won't apply correctly)
  • Try hit the combination of your desired shortcut.
  • If the shortcuts is calling some system functions, disable it in "Setting" -> "Shortcuts" (For example I change Screen Locking from Meta+L to Meta+Esc)
  • Launch "Discover", search for "AutoKey" and install.
  • Create new Script.
  • Set you hotkey with modifier "Hyper".
  • Fill the script (You can reference to the example in the app).
  • Have fun!
