[Feature request] Allow keyboard shortcut combination to be changed.

Open jeremytbrun opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

I have a custom build ErgoDox (not an ErgoDox EZ) that I have been using their graphical configurator with no issues. Your software works for my layout, but I don't (by choice) have a hyper key mapped on my keyboard. Can I change the key combination that will pop open the layout viewer instead of Hyper+Space?

Hello @jeremytbrun,

This feature is already planned here. Unfortunately, I am currently swamp with non dev related business and I have little to no free time to work on it.

In the mean time, you can change it directly in the setting file : see the HotkeyShowLayout setting. Default is : {"modifiers":[0,1,2,4],"keycode":32} Modifiers are :

  • 0 = Alt,
  • 1 = Ctrl,
  • 2 = Shift,
  • 3 = OS Key (Windows or Cmd).

KeyCode is representing the ASCII code for a key. Here it is Space and its value is 32.

So if you want to change it, let's say for "Ctrl+Shift+a", the value would be : {"modifiers":[1,2],"keycode":97}

It is not ideal, but that's the best I can do for now.

+1 for this feature request due to windows intercepting hyper now to advertise office 365!

I worked around the issue by using the method above and removing the 4 from the modifier to switch from hyper to meh
