How to access the settings? (fall 2022 release)

ti-vim is a Menu bar app. You access settings from the ‘v’ logo in the menu bar.

Vim key is not working

  • Try setting the vim key to something else, and then back to your key in settings.
  • Check if all the karabiner processes are running
  • You can check if ti-vim modifications 1-12 are in ~/.config/karabiner/karabiner.json. In that file, search for ‘(ti-vim 1)’ – ‘(ti-vim 12)’. You can also check whether there are any conflicting manipulators for the ti-vim ones.
  • Try reinstalling the app. This might enable MacOS system permissions for Karabiner.
    • Uninstall ti-vim from the ti-vim app settings.
    • Restart MacOS
    • Install ti-vim again. Go through the install flow again. Check if you allow all permissions.
