# FAQ

|
|
|
### How do I switch between keyboard layouts?
|
|
|
|
Edit your `~/.config/hypr/input.lua` file and add this to switch between layouts on `Left Alt + Right Alt`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
hl.config({
|
|
input = {
|
|
-- Use multiple keyboard layouts and switch between them with Left Alt + Right Alt
|
|
kb_layout = "us,fr",
|
|
kb_options = "compose:caps,shift:both_capslock_cancel,grp:alts_toggle",
|
|
},
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The bar will automatically show your current keyboard layout once you have multiple layouts configured (and you can click it to switch too).
|
|
|
|
### How do I change the clock format to 12-hour?
|
|
|
|
Right-click the clock in the bar to cycle through the common formats, including the 12-hour ones. You can also set the format directly:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
omarchy bar set omarchy.clock format "dddd h:mm AP"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will display Sunday 10:55 AM.
|
|
|
|
### How do I change my timezone?
|
|
|
|
Run _Update > Timezone_ in the Omarchy menu and pick from the list. If the timezone is right but the clock itself has drifted, _Update > Time_ restarts the time synchronization for you.
|
|
|
|
### How do I change my DNS, share my Wi-Fi, or check my connection speed?
|
|
|
|
Those all live in [networking](35-networking.md).
|
|
|
|
### How do I check how fast my disk is?
|
|
|
|
_Trigger > Speed Test > Disk Speed Test_ measures live read and write speed on your drive, or `omarchy disk speedtest` from the terminal.
|
|
|
|
### Why can't I sign into my Google account in Chromium?
|
|
|
|
The plain open source Chromium build doesn't ship with the OAuth credentials that Google requires for account sign-in. Run _Install > Service > Chromium Account_ in the Omarchy menu to add them, restart the browser, and the sign-in will go through.
|
|
|
|
### How do I add a printer?
|
|
|
|
Printing is set up and running out of the box, so a printer on your network is usually already discovered. Launch _Print Settings_ from the app launcher (`Super + Space`) to see what's there, add one by hand, or set the default. Printing to a PDF file works without any printer at all.
|
|
|
|
### How do I change where screenshots or screenrecordings are saved?
|
|
|
|
If you want screenshots to be saved to `~/Pictures/Screenshots` instead of just `~/Pictures`, you can add this to a file under `~/.config/uwsm/env.d/` (like `~/.config/uwsm/env.d/capture`):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
export OMARCHY_SCREENSHOT_DIR="$HOME/Pictures/Screenshots"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can do the same for screenrecordings using `OMARCHY_SCREENRECORD_DIR`.
|
|
|
|
Just remember to create the directoy you want to save to and restart Omarchy for this to take effect.

|
### How do I get the speakers + webcam working on my Apple Studio Display?
|
|
|
|
You'd think that it should all work just plugging in USB C, but unfortunately that isn't the case. The solution I've found to make it work reliably is using [the WJESOG DisplayPort + USB-A => USB-C cable](https://www.amazon.com/WJESOG-DisplayPort-Adapter-Converter-Thunderbolt/dp/B0BNX7MS6N/). Then speakers and webcam work like a charm.
|
|
|
|
Remember that you have built-in brightness control in Omarchy for the Apple Displays (both Studio and XDR) using the regular keyboard brightness buttons.
|
|
|
|
### How do I get rid of all the extra software?
|
|
|
|
If you don't want programs like Obsidian or any of the other preinstalled stuff, you can very easily remove it.
|
|
|
|
Run _Remove > Package_ to see every package that's installed. Then you can select any package you'd like to remove with tab, and start removing everything you've selected with return.
|
|
|
|
And you can use _Remove > Web App_ from the Omarchy menu to remove any of the preinstalled web apps you don't want.
|
|
|
|
Or run _Remove > Preinstalls_ to sweep out all the preinstalled extras — web apps, TUIs, and optional applications — in one go. The hotkeys that launched them go away with them, so you're left with a clean slate of bindings to fill with your own in `~/.config/hypr/bindings.lua`.
