Title: Swap [Esc] and [~] on XD68 PCB
Post by: BlackBeard637 on Fri, 14 October 2022, 13:21:15

Hi all! I assembled my first custom keyboard on pcb from KPrepublik XD68.

Faced a problem. By default [~] (top left key) works like [ESC].

For type a [`] = [Fn] + [ESC]
For type a [~] = [Fn] + [Shift] + [ESC] - and that's horrible

I want to make it work like a [~] by default, and:

For type a [`] = [Shift] + [ESC]
For run [ESC] = [Fn] + [ESC]

I have tried adjusting the values in keyboard-layout-editor.com and flash keyboard through xd.tkg.io like this:

"Esc\n\n\n\n~\n`" - default setting
"~\n\n\n\nEsc\n`" - the combination i tried

But xd.tkg.io does not accept such a combination with error "no maching key"


What am I doing wrong? Or is there any way to customize the key the way I want?

"~\n`\n\n\nEsc"
