Q: What is the font name of the lettering of Leopold keyboards?
« on: Wed, 14 December 2011, 15:29:04 »
Hi there!

As it says in the thread title... is anybody able to recognize what the font name is of the lettering of Leopold keyboards?
I did search the forums and google and couldnt find an answer.

The reason why I am asking is... well I want to achieve this -

[ Attachment Invalid Or Does Not Exist ] 34984[/ATTACH]

But of course instead of the "Esc" label I would like the normal "0 )" written... just on a red key cap.

I can almost touch type and I have found out that the key that is most difficult to press for me is... the 0...
The keys around the Enter key are easier to not have to look for them, its just the 0 that i find tough.

In addition i feel that it may be beneficial for  me when playing SC2.

Anyways, I have found out that WASD keybaords make custom key caps but I dont know the exact font to choose. (=

Thanks guys (=

Hint.

What do  I ALWAYS post?  After 120 posts I'm sure you've noticed.


- A funny pictures with legos (those are awesome)
- You ask people to follow the link in your signature and press Ctrl+F and search for their area of interest
- Pop culture references which I don't always get because I am not American

But I couldn't find it in your sig, I must be blind >.>
And there is no lego pictures yet...

Geekhack wikis are indeed very hard to navigate.

The search function also leaves a lot to be desired.

I have a lot of nerve complaining about hours of hard work invested by volunteers - you guys are great!

I have learned a tremendous amount in under a year with this forum, and had a lot of fun reading the bizarre posts, but the vast warehouse of information is certainly buried.

How the wiki structure is organized would be of little consequence if search was more precise or better targeted.

I'm just saying .......

And thanks a million, again.

Sometimes I understand Ripster's code...

You're to lazy to do 2 simple steps:





If you don't use the wiki you should not open a Thread to ask something that is writen in it. Well I understand too that sometimes the wiki is not easy to follow at all  so I don't want to sound rude!

You can do custom keys now with your own .svg with whatever font or icons you want. Why the weeping?

I am feeling embarrassed that I couldn't find that article with the Leopold key caps >.>

Guilleguillaume, I didn't not find it out of "laziness". I simply couldn't find it. I used my browser search on that signature of Ripsters, tried to search the forum and tried to google search the forum.

Thanks for showing me though. I will most definitely check there as well next time when I have a question (:
