I’m getting some wierd behavior using the (Qukeys plugin. I have it set up so that a tap on my thumb keys emits a [{()}] character. (I’m getting the odd behavior where if i type a chorded character too quickly (like a capital letter or keyboard command) I get both the punctuation and the chorded cha…

You definitely shouldn’t be seeing that behaviour. I’ll look into it today. If you can share your sketch, that would help. I also recommend reporting the issue on GitHub, if you’ve got an account there.

[image] pian0: I updated just on Friday, 3/29. Did you update to Kaleidoscope-Bundle-Keyboardio’s master branch, or to Kaleidoscope’s master branch? There are some big changes in the latter than have not been updated in the former yet. That said, I have so far been unsuccessful at reproducin…

I’m speculating that this is being caused by interaction with another plugin, possibly due to suboptimal plugin hook ordering.

Thanks. I can reproduce the problem now, and I know what’s going on (but not yet all the details). It’s not that Qukeys is sending both the modifier and the parenthesis character – the problem is rollover from a mod-flagged key (LSHIFT(Key_0)) to a normal key (Key_Q). So, Qukeys is doing what it oug…

One recommendation, regarding Qukeys – it’s best to put it first in KALEIDOSCOPE_INIT_PLUGINS() (though that is not the source of the problem you were seeing.

I made the recommended changes just for good hygiene’s sake, and as you said the issue persists. One thing I’m noticing that I can’t explain is when I’m in the MACOS layer and hit Cmd+A (where Cmd is a Qukey mapped to {), I’ll sometimes get “{A” when it doesn’t select all. I don’t quite understand w…

When you release the qukey first, it becomes {, which is generated by shift + [. While that key is still in effect, including the shift, the A keycode is sent, so the host produces a capital letter A. The fact that you were getting capital letters with the (/shift qukey was coincidental — the shift …

@pian0 – I’ve submitted a PR that should fix the bug (with the caveat that it will most likely not fix the problem that you’re having): [gedankenexperimenter] Fix Qukeys mod flag rollover by gedankenexperimenter on 04:12AM - 04 Apr 19 UTC 1 commits changed 1 file…

I’ve got an idea for that in the works, too. If you’re interested, read the section titled “A related problem” in my latest post in that topic.
