modmap in custom keyboard layout

[Julow]

Fn+e gives € and the only way to disable that is to explicitly revert it as you did.

Hi,

The modmap is placed at the same levels as the rows, for example starting from the qwerty US layout:

<keyboard name="QWERTY (US)" script="latin">
  <modmap>
    <fn a="~" b="≈"/>
    <fn a="=" b="≠"/>
  </modmap>
  <row>
    <key key0="q" key2="1" key4="loc esc"/>
    <key key0="w" key1="~" key2="2" key3="\@"/>
    <key key0="e" key1="!" key2="3" key3="\#" key4="loc €"/>
    <key key0="r" key2="4" key3="$" key1="loc ₪"/>
    <key key0="t" key2="5" key3="%"/>
    <key key0="y" key2="6" key3="^"/>
    <key key0="u" key2="7" key3="&amp;"/>
    <key key0="i" key2="8" key3="*"/>
    <key key0="o" key1="loc accent_macron" key2="9" key3="(" key4=")"/>
    <key key0="p" key2="0"/>
  </row>
  ... The rest
</keyboard>

@JapanYoshi It's possible to map Fn since last release.

Hi, Thank for reaction. I thought it should be something like that, but only the original replacement with æ en ₱ for a and b is shown. This is my code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <keyboard name="QWERTY (US)" script="latin">   <modmap>     <fn a="~" b="≈"/>     <shift a="=" b="≠"/>   </modmap>   <row>     <key key0="q" key2="1" key3="!" key4="esc"/>     <key key0="w" key1="~" key2="2" key3="\@"/>     <key key0="e" key1="!" key2="3" key3="\#" key4="loc €"/>     <key key0="r" key2="4" key3="$" key1="loc ₪"/>     <key key0="t" key2="5" key3="%"/>     <key key0="y" key2="6" key3="^"/>     <key key0="u" key2="7" key3="&amp;"/>     <key key0="i" key2="8" key3="*"/>     <key key0="o" key1="loc accent_macron" key2="9" key3="(" key4=")"/>     <key key0="p" key2="0" key3="f11_placeholder" key4="f12_placeholder"/>   </row>   <row>     <key shift="0.5" key0="a" key1="tab" key2="`"/>     <key key0="s" key1="loc accent_ring" key2="loc §" key3="loc ß" key4="loc accent_ogonek"/>     <key key0="d" key1="loc accent_grave" key2="loc £" key3="loc accent_aigu"/>     <key key0="f" key1="loc accent_dot_above"/>     <key key0="g" key1="loc accent_caron" key2="-" key3="_"/>     <key key0="h" key2="=" key3="+"/>     <key key0="j" key1="loc accent_trema" key2="loc accent_circonflexe" key4="}" key3="{"/>     <key key0="k" key1="loc accent_double_aigu" key3="[" key4="]"/>     <key key0="l" key2="|" key3="\\"/>   </row>   <row>     <key width="1.5" key0="shift" key2="loc capslock"/>     <key key0="z"/>     <key key0="x" key2="loc †"/>     <key key0="c" key1="loc accent_cedille" key2="&lt;" key3="."/>     <key key0="v" key2="&gt;" key3=","/>     <key key0="b" key2="\?" key3="/"/>     <key key0="n" key1="loc accent_tilde" key2=":" key3=";"/>     <key key0="m" key2="&quot;" key3="'"/>     <key width="1.5" key0="backspace" key2="delete"/>   </row> </keyboard>

This means that "~" should be changed into "≈" when Fn is pressed: <fn a="~" b="≈"/> It's not related to the "a" and "b" keys, "a" and "b" are the XML attributes for "from" and "to". Le 9 juin 2024 17:29:20 GMT+02:00, Joppla ***@***.***> a écrit :

Thanks! Now I understand it! 😀

Hi,
Just another question for the same subject.

If in the default layout for example is written:
<fn a="e" b="€" />
but I don't want to change it in my layout, is than the only way to undo it to make the rule:
<fn a="e" b="e" />?
Or is there another way?

[Spike-from-NH]

If you have a custom layout file, it should be sufficient to remove the existing rule, rather than write a new rule to countermand it.

[Joppla]

Thanks!

Now mentioned in the draft documentation.
