LAYER_TOGGLE throws exception
I'm, attempting to create a key binding that permanently toggles a layer on and off after each key press. However, upon setting a binding such as:
L4 = LAYER_TOGGLE(4)
I see the following exception:
I suspect it's because we're trying to do 0.25 <<10
(because 4/4 == 0.25
). If I change it to integer division (4//4
), I no longer get an exception, but the binding seems to have no effect.
The closest I've been able to get to achieving the result I want is by defining L4
as LAYER_TAP_TOGGLE(4)
. This is inadequate for two reasons:
- the layer reverts back to layer 0 after a few moments 2.. I have to hold down the key for a bit for it to toggle. Ideally, I could press the binding quickly and see results.
My particular use case is switching from a windows/linux layout to a mac one withhout having drag/drop code.py every time. I could also see this working out for switching between different language layouts.
If you just want to switch between layouts(rather than changing a specific layer), you can refer to my fork.
I prepared different layout configurations and use marco keys to activate them.
