# nstickney's Ortholinear Layout
|
|
|
|
> Familiar layout for users who regularly switch between Bastyl/Iris and standard QWERTY.
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
For instructions on building and installing this keymap, see the [docs](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_make_guide).
|
|
Below is the command for me; it may be different for you.
|
|
Note that my Iris keyboard has an Elite-C on the left half and a ProMicro on the right half.
|
|
|
|
- Bastyl: `make hidtech/bastyl:nstickney:dfu`
|
|
- Iris
|
|
- Elite-C: `make keebio/iris/rev2:nstickney:dfu`
|
|
- ProMicro: `make keebio/iris/rev2:nstickney:avrdude`
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
0. QWERTY `BASE` layer.
|
|
* `/`, `\`, `[SPACE]`, `[ENTER]`, `-`, and `=` on the thumb clusters.
|
|
* `[` and `]` added on Bastyl.
|
|
* `CAPSLOCK` replaced by `ESC`; hold it down for `CTRL`.
|
|
* `'` can also be held for `CTRL`.
|
|
* [Space-Cadet Shift](https://beta.docs.qmk.fm/using-qmk/advanced-keycodes/feature_space_cadet) is enabled, so the `SHIFT` keys send `(` and `)` when tapped.
|
|
* Hold down `/` or `=` for `ALT`.
|
|
* Hold down `\` or `-` to access the functions layer.
|
|
* Farthest thumb keys are `GUI` (left) and `MENU` (right).
|
|
* Tapping `GUI` 2, 3, or 4 times will toggle `NUMLOCK`, `CAPSLOCK`, or `SCROLLLOCK`, respectively.
|
|
* Tapping `MENU` 2 or 3 times will toggle the `NUMP` and `SYMB` layers, respectively.
|
|
0. Unicode-input symbols on `SYMB` layer. Based (loosely) on US-International layout.
|
|
0. `NUMP` layer has number pads on each hand. Number pad `7`-`8`-`9` align with QWERTY `7`-`8`-`9` on right hand.
|
|
0. Function, arrow, media, and miscellaneous keys on `FCTN` layer.
|
|
* `F1` through `F10` on `1`-`10`. `F11` is on `GUI` and `F12` is on `MENU`.
|
|
* Brackets (`[` and `]`) available on `U` and `I`; braces (`{` and `}`) on `O` and `P`.
|
|
* Arrow keys on `ESDF` and `HJKL`; familiar for both Vim users and FPS gamers.
|
|
* `W` is `HOME`; `R` is `END`. `T` is `PAGE UP` and `G` is `PAGE DOWN`.
|
|
* Music controls on lower row of left hand.
|
|
* Volume and screen brightness on lower row of right hand.
|
|
* `PRINT SCREEN`, `PAUSE`, `SYSREQ`, `INSERT`, and `CLEAR` also mapped, as intelligently as possible.
|
|
* `Q` toggles the RGB underglow (which changes color to indicate active layer).
|
|
* `A` increases RGB underglow brightness (with `SHIFT`, decreases brightness).
|
|
* `Y` is mapped to [`QK_LOCK`](https://beta.docs.qmk.fm/using-qmk/software-features/feature_key_lock).
