Slion 1,201 Posted August 1, 2020 Author Share Posted August 1, 2020 As I'm investigating how to implement qwertz support I thought it could be nice to have support for gamepads too. Any gamer out there wishing for a such a feature? Maybe it just does not make sense if you do not have analog stick support anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

On Droid 4 I was using app GameKeyboard and it was perfect for gaming. On Pro1 service for this app just can't start... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Slion 1,201 Posted August 3, 2020 Author Share Posted August 3, 2020 (edited) @FlyingAntero Here is a first draft for QWERTZ layout. The ALT layer is still missing, the Fx layer may need to be adapted for QWERTZ as it should currently be the same as on QWERTY. hwkbd-v0.4.0-fxTecPro1-qwertz-release.apk Known issues: First row shift not acting as fn. Fn characters on standard letter keys missing or wrong. Edited August 3, 2020 by Slion 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Slion 1,201 Posted August 3, 2020 Author Share Posted August 3, 2020 Known issues from above should be fixed now. hwkbd-v0.4.1-fxTecPro1-qwertz-release.apk 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I installed the latest version successfully. First row shift is acting like a FN (except that shift + ß gives ẞ but that is probably like it should). 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I am not familiar with German letters so I don't know either. I see that you implemented FX combinations also (like FX + c gives calculator). Nice! So far I haven't seen any issues with the keymap. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

QWERTZ suits quite well for us since we have Ä and Ö letters also and instead of Ü we are using Å. Then Y and Z needs to be swapped. So, only minor remapping is needed from QWERTZ to Scandic. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I could do a QWERTZ - FI layout if you want. Should I take a look at the FinQwerty variant?

It was added as a character to official German rather recently (June 2017), for the case of writing an existing text in all caps (as an example the Corbusier WP theme I use for my blog has this odd behaviour for some headers). I guess It is not that likely to actually type it though. But that is now possible. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Instead of capital ß it should give the question mark. Or how am is supposed to type question mark insteadẞ 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pebert 98 Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Hi I´m still struggling a bit with this, How do I find the scan codes for the "F" and "arrow up" buttons? the Key-loggers or dmesg don´t show anything. Running LinageOS18.1 also when I look at the original keychars file I don´t find symbols related to the "arrow up" button, (for example I don´t see anything about "/" being associated to "P" //Per Quote Link to post Share on other sites
