Drootz's DZ65RGBv2 ANSI Layout
This layout fit best people who mainly type in English but regularly need to type in French (using an English keyboard in OS setting). There are also some cool LED indicator effects and tons of Leader Key bindings/macros designed to work on both Mac and Windows OS. I tried to keep things as simple as possible from a usability perspective. Enjoy!
HIGH LEVEL DESCRIPTION
Dual function Capslock key
- Single tap to trigger the Leader Key
- Double tap to toggle Capslock ON/OFF
70+ useful Leader Key bindings and macros
- "Designed" to work on both Mac and Windows OS with an English keyboard OS setting
- Per key timing set at 425ms. Never a key sequence!
- 20+ Punctuation, ASCII, System shortcuts and macros
- 15+ French accents (è, é, ê, È, É, Ê, à, etc.)
- No need to switch to a French keyboard OS setting!
- Preserve Capslock if enabled
- 8 Text "selection" shortcuts
- 20+ Expanded "Space Cadet" feature with Shift, Ctrl, Alt and DoubleQuote for (), [], {} and ""
- Few useful strings output for my workflow (You may want to change or remove them...)
Dynamic Macros enabled
- Record/Play up to 2 Macros
- Nesting allowed
Kept only 4 RGB matrix animations due to size of firmware
- Typing Heatmap => How hot is your WPM! (preferred animation because of LED indicators)
- Matrix Splash => Full gradient & value pulse away from a single key hit then fades value out
- Solid Splash => Hue & value pulse away from a single key hit then fades value out
- Solid Color => Static single hue, no speed support
LED indicators and animations
- White led when Capslock toggle ON
- The brightness of all the other indicator can be adjusted globally with the RGB matrix brightness setting on layer _FN
- White LED indicator for layer selection and current layer identification
- Red and green blinking indicator when "recording" or "playing" Dynamic Macros
- Leader Key LED indicator:
- Persistent 50% dimmed under-glow on top right corner key
- Light up at 100% for the duration of the Leader Key timeout when activated
- Hue, saturation and brightness can be globally adjusted with the RGB matrix settings on layer _FN
3 Layers
- _MAIN: Default layer for Windows OS
- _MAC: Transparent layer that switch left hand modifier KC_LALT and KC_LGUI keys for MacOS
- _FN: Functions & settings layer:
- Macro 1 & 2 keycodes (Record, Stop, Play) with LED indicators
- F Keys (F1...F12) on number row
- RGB matrix & animation settings
- Screen brightness & volume system controls
- Layer selection
LAYERS
- Colored keys on the layout visuals below represent the position of the LED indicators on each layer.
- Press down and hold the MO(_FN) key to access the _FN layer
- Double tap on the Capslock key to toggle Capslock ON/OFF
- _TRNS keys use the next lowest non-transparent key (on lower layers)
- _NO keys are ignored (nothing happens)
Layer 0: _MAIN
Layer 1: _MAC
Layer 2: _FN
LEADER KEY BINDINGS
The Leader Key on this layout is triggered by tapping the Capslock key once. Once triggered, we have 450ms between each key press to type any one of the sequences listed below. All sequences are designed to work on both Mac and Windows with an English keyboard OS setting.
