Title: Scroll lock and caps lock when changing keycaps on Leo's and KULS
Post by: NorrisB on Mon, 02 March 2015, 21:47:27

Say for example you bought some double shots, do you lose the functionality of the LEDs?  Is there a work around for it?  Another reason to buy Filco?

The LEDs will glow around the keycap. You will not at all lose functionality.
One way to get around this is to buy sets that will have windows on them, however the good ones are only found with OG cherry sets or some GMK sets.

you'll still be able to see the LED, but just the under glow.

don't really need to do anything special tbh, it'll be visible enough.

Pretty much what's said above. Technically, they do have backlit doubleshot sets, with the clear layer being the filled layer. So I guess you could actually find a set with the indicator spot
