hotkey ignores #comment about mangohud HOT 9 CLOSED

in what location is this config file?

from mangohud.

default installed file

/home/catbox/.config/MangoHud/MangoHud.conf

from mangohud.

does it work if you set it manually with the environment variable? MANGOHUD_CONFIG=toggle_hud=0,toggle_logging=0

from mangohud.

MANGOHUD=1 MANGOHUD_CONFIG=toggle_hud=0,toggle_logging=0 %command%

steam proton 5.02
launch option
seems to work

Nvidia 440.59
Vulkan Instance Version: 1.2.131
apiVersion = 4198519 (1.1.119)

earlier the HUD came back and all i did was exit to the menu
wierd

from mangohud.

it sounds like the file is being overridden by another config file or it's not being read, if you run MANGOHUD=1 vkcube he should print some info about configs in console. Can you paste that here?

parsing config: /home/catbox/.local/share/MangoHud/MangoHud.conf [ ok ]
parsing config: /home/catbox/.config/MangoHud/MangoHud.conf [ ok ]
skipping config: /home/catbox/.config/MangoHud/vkcube.conf
skipping config: /usr/bin/MangoHud.conf
cat: /etc/upstream-release: Is a directory

ahh i see, its in .local also hmm
maybe i should create a syslink

from mangohud.

although my settings in .config override the other

mv .local to MangoHud.conf.bak

skipping config: /home/catbox/.config/MangoHud/vkcube.conf
skipping config: /usr/bin/MangoHud.conf
cat: /etc/upstream-release: Is a directory

symlink .config to .local
~/.local/share/MangoHud $ ln -s ~/.config/MangoHud/MangoHud.conf

from mangohud.

yeah so the problem being seems to be pulling multiple .conf files and doesnt set a priority for which rules to follow

thanks a lot! that helps track down some further config setup
