Configurator (GUI)

Wayscriber has a native configurator for editing settings without touching the config file.

Launch

  • Press F11 inside the overlay
  • Or run wayscriber-configurator

If the configurator is not installed, install wayscriber-configurator or point to it with WAYSCRIBER_CONFIGURATOR.

What you can change

  • Drawing defaults: color, thickness, font family, weight, style, text background
  • Arrow settings: length, angle, head placement
  • Performance: buffer count and vsync
  • UI: status bar toggle/position/style, help overlay styling, click highlight settings, frozen badge
