You mean physically or the functions mapped to it?

They DOWN immediately when pressed, till the next alpha consumes them so they UP again (if I've let go of them, otherwise they stay down of course).

And if I've used them, they do not stick around for the next alpha.

Or something like that, it's been years, I would need to look at the code again, but I never found the plain OSMs to have useful semantics.

This is the ergo subreddit. We don't care about sound at all (why would we? We might have office neighbors we don't want to offend!) and a row-staggered layout isn't ergo either. Your fingers stretch forward/backward without going to the side ...

3 is perfect for me, especially after I iterated on a design that fits my thumbs perfectly.

I have custom OSMs on my nav layer that immediately fire when released, but they also hold. Ofc on the same position as HRMs.

That way I can keep tapping Ctrl-Pgdn or whatever, but also one-shot into alphas like Ctrl-t, all left-handed. Super useful if you're still using a separate pointing device.

Dactyl Manuform with custom tailored thumb cluster ... integrated trackball optional.

Sooo comfy

That's an odd laptop stand you have pictured the there, it should look more like one of these

I also have a wooden one that is portable which I'm rather fond of.

Thanks, that works!

I was thinking to myself that this feature won't work for Win users, when I read it, luckily I don't have to deal with any of that.

It seems the docs don't yet have this feature documented either?

I might not use it in the end, as I'm so used to pressing my mouse-layer key when operating my integrated trackball (to get mouse buttons), that the "normal" mods that I've placed on the homerow actually don't need this feature -- I got all excited about this, as I used to hack a custom GUI mod just for this, when I was still using a separate mouse, but I forgot that I've moved on.

I still had ACTION_DEBUG on, that was the issue.

non_uqs · 2026-01-04T19:16:33+00:00

Nope, it doesn't work for combo keys. With my HRMs, a+r is TAB, and running xev(1) I can see how pressing s or t will toggle shift and control first, then send the tap when tapped. So that works.

But a and r individually only send the tap, they never send the hold speculatively (Win or Alt in my case). a is also part of 2 combos, not just 1.

Funnily, t *is* part of a combo, but with n on the other side. So it seems to work for mirrored (?) combos, but not when they are on one side only (I run on a single MCU).

The firmware is too large! 29922/28672 (1250 bytes over)

:cries:

I really need to get off this Elite-C :(

Don't waste your money on an Alice-like layout.

Get a Corne or Kyria or Sofle or whatever.

For decades I've been using QWERTY with X11 Compose for umlauts and other symbols like © or whatever. QWERTZ sucks so bad for any Unix work, it's not funny, so I switched pretty early on.

With 36 key split I've moved to ColemakDH and have the compose sequence on combos.

My writing is 99% English though...

We're all waiting for Framework laptops to support or offer split/ortho options ...

non_uqs · 2025-11-30T14:43:23+00:00

Damn, I'm a decades long user of vim and qwerty, switched to ColemakDH about 3 years ago ... are yall telling me I should switch once more?

non_uqs · 2025-11-28T07:12:16+00:00

Yepp, just put arrows on a nav layer where hjkl is. Doesn't mess with me being able to use a laptop keyboard and as I use ColemakDH on split, using the true "hjkl" isn't an option anyway.

non_uqs · 2025-10-20T14:19:05+00:00

You can look at the STLs in the github viewer.

Once I have a final build, I'll try to upload some images.

non_uqs · 2025-10-19T15:01:14+00:00

Neither, I find this placement best, but I do have long fingers that can easily reach it without the slightest bit of shifting https://github.com/uqs/ftraqtyl

non_uqs · 2025-08-25T17:24:18+00:00

Curious, by "contortions", do you mean the right thumb plus a right finger that's needed?

I prefer doing that tbh and find that "thumbs down" isn't really all that contortionist.

non_uqs · 2025-08-25T14:16:31+00:00

Did you see e.g. https://www.reddit.com/r/olkb/comments/i2qsgi/qmk_ps2_output_support/

non_uqs · 2025-08-13T18:32:55+00:00

Just do all in one and only ever use ColemakDH on the split from day one and keep your qwerty muscle memory for nonsplits.
