Layer corruption when moving keys (?)
Describe the bug
I'm trying to move two keys in a layer for my Atreus. Doing so seems to reproducibly corrupt my keyboard layout.
The first time this happened, I had the layout loaded from hardware (not modified in a while). Here is an older backup I have from my layout, which seems to suffice to reproduce this at least on one layer: Layout.json
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Load the layout from above
- Go to layer 3 with the F-keys:
- Shift the F-keys one to the left by reassigning them:
-
Save to device and observe how holding both middle keys and trying to use the F keys now produces numbers sometimes (?), as if I was on layer 2. Various things except the primary layer seem to be broken.
-
Close and reopen Chrysalis, the data read back from the device is broken in a similar way:
Here is a reexport: Layout-broken.json
Expected behavior
No such corruption. I'm not sure if there is something wrong in my initial JSON somehow (?), but apparently it also was what was stored on my device in hardware.
Debug bundle
It looks like the problem disappeared while I was trying to get a debug bundle... here it is anyways: chrysalis-debug.json
Desktop (please complete the following information):
- OS: Archlinux
- Chrysalis Version: 0.13.3
Hi, Can you repro this on https://chrysalis.keyboard.io? Chrysalis has moved to the web and there's been a ton of work on reliability since 0.13.3
I've had the same issue intermittently since updating firmware to v0.92.6+116 a week or so ago. I can't remember the previous version I had, but maybe 0.91.x.
First, it was shifting the layout of certain layers left or right several columns, wrapping around. Today it shifted all the keymaps up one row on all layers, top rows of some layers now showing up at the bottom row of layers below them. It also reset the layer names I had set except for "Base" (layer 0).
For example, here is "Base" layer. The value of the highlighted key was on the key below it (the one that now has 5). The numbers were on the top row of layer #1. The highlighted key was the only thing I changed before saving. It was Backspace on tap, Shift to "Arrows" layer when held. I changed it to just Shift to "Arrows" layer . After saving, the layer name changed from Arrows to #2, and all the keys shifted up one row, the numbers are now on the bottom row of layer "Base".
Other layers look to be shifted the same way.
OS: Windows Chrysalis 0.13.3, desktop app Keyboard: Keyboardio Atreus Keyboard firmware: 0.92.6+116
Update: Originally I said the top rows were wrapping around to the bottom layer of the same row. But I realize now they are wrapping around to the bottom of the layer below.
Taylor, can you replicate this with https://chrysalis.keyboard.io? The desktop app is no longer being updated.

The web app seems to work fine. For good measure, I flashed the firmware again. There were some errors and it did a factory reset. After that, I loaded the backup of the corrupted layout, and put it all back the way it was originally. That saved to my keyboard without issue.
