Add custom alt combinations for layouts
I cant do custom alt layouts for my layouts, because i want it so alt+a on one or more of my custom layouts to be ə. And alt+c to be ɔ, alt+d to be ð and alt+d+, to make ɖ. all issues about this have potentially been fixed, all issues, and on custom layouts, you can choose any amout of alt Combinations to make a character and a custom Crtl+
i have the app, and i have about over 60 layouts (a lot of you would probably call me crazy, i have these layouts for typing characters) does this app have an unlimited amout of layouts you can make? If so then i can just type a lot of characters (old English letters: ƿȝŋðþæœ)
...anyone going to... answer me?

Hi! The Alt modifier is intended to send the "Alt" key modifier to remote desktop and terminal apps.
The Fn modifier is the one intended for your usecase. You can define it like this in your layouts:
<keyboard ...>
<modmap>
<fn a="a" b="ə" />
</modmap>
...
</keyboard>
However, this might not be the best in your case as the Fn layer already contains plenty of combinations. For example Fn+a is already æ.
It seems that you want a second Fn that you can fully configure.
You can already set modmaps for the ctrl modifier but because it's not intended for this usecase as well, you might get weird results with some letters.
Like, so "Fn a="a" makes it so FN on a makes it "a"?

An other example is:
<modmap>
<fn a="c" b="ɔ" />
</modmap>
Insert this before the first <row>.
When you press fn, c becomes ɔ.
a goes to æ b → ₱ c → ¢ e → € h → ₴ l → £ o →œ p → ₽ r → ₹ R → ₨ u → µ y → ¥ z → ₿

Have you tried adding the <modmap> I showed above in your custom layout ?
(this will include ı and i, where a short i is ı, it will use ə for the long e. The capital ı is I, and the capital i is İ.) Whats The Code Used For The Turkish Layouts? İ Wonder Why, and whats the code for the layouts for the Layout of the Turkish Azerbaijanə. İt goes in thıs: Q Ü E R T Y U İ O P Ö. A S D F G H { K L I Ə. Z X C V B N M Ş, Extras: W Ğ Ç ₼. But how does the capital i make İ and capital ı make I?
I am confused.

Are you talking about the Turkish I because you read it here ?
It's an example for the shift modmap but I think you need to modify the fn modmap instead. Have a look at this comment.
