I want to open the Application lens
in the Unity Dash
as the default lens
, since I much more open a programm then searching for a Wikipedia article, the weather or anything else the Home lens offers.
Here How do I show the Applications Lens By Default? and here What are Unity's keyboard and mouse shortcuts? are the same questions, but the suggested answers don't work anymore on Trusty.
I know that I can open the Application lens
with Superkey + A but I just would like to press Superkey to open it.
An alternative would be to only get online suggestions when specifically asked for them, but even though I just select the application scope in the filter section I get some useless online results. BTW, I don't want to open the online search results in general, since I just reactivated them to try it out.
Answer but no solution: Just found this bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1089010. Till it will be fixed JohnnyEnglish's answer as a workaround will is the best.
