Shortcuts

  • A Shortcuts layer can be activated holding any of the home row pinky keys.
  • This layer gives access to some complex features, like Select Word and shortcuts to some commonly used applications and app shortcuts.
  • Up and Down arrows, Enter and Esc are also available in the right side of this layer to make it easier to navigate in context menus.

Select Word and Select Line

  • These two macros selects the current word or line in the first press and extend the selection to the next ones in consecutive presses.
  • These macros are also OS aware and works the same way on Windows, Linux and MacOS.
  • The implementation was based on Pascal's implementation, but it does not work the same way.

Custom

The custom layer is dedicated to trigger custom shortcuts for specific apps using the Meh (Shift+Ctrl+Alt) and Hyper (Shift+Ctrl+Alt+Gui). These custom shortcuts could be mapped to actions in softwares like VSCode, IntelliJ or Fusion-360, or intercepted by proxies like BetterTouchTool or Keyboard Maestro to trigger the shortcut sequences expected by this apps. This layer can be fixed or momentarily activated using a single hand, either of them, which makes it an easy way to extend and customize this keymap without the need for new layers or a new version of the firmware.

The custom layer will be mapped for VSCode/IntelliJ and Fusion 360 as follows:
