Kinesis Advantage 2 macro problems
« on: Sun, 22 January 2017, 09:37:10 »
Hey there! I have an Advantage 2 and started to get into personalising the keyboard by remapping and creating macros.
For longer german texts I would like to have the " easier available, as I need press shift+' to get a " followed by aou to write δφό.
I thought of creating a macro on the ' key to swap the shift behaviour like this:

Code: [Select]
{‘}>{speed9}{-shift}{‘}{+shift}
{‘}>{speed9}{-shift}{‘}{+shift}
{lshift}{‘}>{speed9}{‘}
{rshift}{‘}>{speed9}{‘}

But this doesn't seem to work as I guess it's not that easy to overwrite the default behaviour, while I'm pretty sure that this is possible. I also thought of creating a layout for German and English, as I need this swapped shift behaviour only for german texts...As I'm still quite new to the Advantage 2 it would be great if someone could point me into a direction how to achieve this with the Advantage itself and not by creating a custom keyboard mapping in Windows for example...

Any help would be really appreciated!
Cheers!
