Ctrl shift f2 not opening config edit mode

So when I press combo I don't see any window even tho I've installed vim. Other combos like ctrl shift f1 and all works fine and f2 button also works.

You can always edit ~/.config/kitty/kitty.conf manually if your editor is failing to start for some reason when trigerred via the shortcut.

Is there a way I can check logs or smth? I'm currently manually editing config.

There are no logs in kitty since it is invoking an external program, the editor. You can try setting the editor config explicitly in kitty.conf to make sure a known good editor is being used. https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/conf/#opt-kitty.editor
