This means I don’t use the top row or innermost columns of keys on the Keyboardio. I made it a point not to move my fingers more than one space away from the home keys in any direction, which inspired this layout. I’m also frequently attempting to hit the space key on my left hand and grabbing backspace instead. The shift keys are taking the longest time to get used to, and I still keep pressing them by accident. The placement of the characters is meant to mirror the default placement of the keys.Īll and all I think that it’s working pretty well.
Another habit that I picked up from using the TouchStream.
#KEYBOARD LAYOUT EDITOR PROGRAM SERIES#
This allows me to press a series of modifiers with one hand and then press the modified key with the other. I setup the modifier keys so that they mirror each hand.Again, I’m trying to rely on muscle memory that I’ve already built up. I moved escape to the top left, which is where I’m used to it being, and I replaced page up with the tab key.I adjusted the arrow keys to better reflect the muscle memory that I have from other keyboards.I changed the default tab and enter keys to be left and right shift, primarily because I kept hitting them by accident, but also because I used to use a gesture on the home row of each hand on the TouchStream which when pressed became shift.I drew some inspiration from the layout of the FingerWorks TouchStream for the position of the space, enter, backspace, and delete keys.
Here’s a summary of the changes that I made from the default Dvorak layout. Here’s the layout that I’m giving a go after having the keyboard for about 24 hours. nickzylstra/keyboardio/blob/master/Model01-Firmware.ino // -*- mode: c++ -*.
