[IC] Idea for new layout update (26.08)

[miya]

Hey, I collect all your suggestions and has finished three layouts Please have a look and choose the one you prefer.


Option A: we can have both arrow keys on left and right, just select which side is convient for you. And all keys can be programmable so don't care about the other side arrow keys.



Option B: This one is more symmetry and has no extra gap between keys. But the right arrow key is straggered.


Option C: This is the most symmetry one but the arrow keys might be a little bit controversial.




 Please sharing your idea in here if you can and we will see what we can do next.

Interesting...Pretty sure I'd get a whole lot of typos with the arrow cluster on the left side... 62/60 layout is GOAT imo.

You could reduce to 15 units total width with e.g. 1.25 left Shift and 1.75 right. Then use 2.25 and/or 2.75 wide Space bars.
Then you could fit it into regular size 60% keyboard cases (...) and regular-sized keycaps.

Again, I have to agree with you. 

I like all the layouts but I don't care for the extra wide modifiers.  Also, once I realized that I would have to extend my pinkies farther out to reach the shift keys on options A and B, option C became my favorite.
