#671 closed bug

Drag and drop keys / chars on keys not implemented — at Version 5

Reported by: kutspam@… Owned by: korli
Priority: low Milestone: R1
Component: Preferences/Keymap Version: R1/pre-alpha1
Keywords: Cc: diver
Blocked By: Blocking:
Platform: All

Description (last modified by mmu_man)

With R5's keymap pref app you can drag the characters displayed on the keyboard to different keys replacing the 'old' character with the 'new' dragged character. IIRC it is also possible to select 1 char from the text input field to a key. Note that the Zeta keymap pref app doesn't have this feature.

Feature request: make a better implementation; not replace but 'switch' characters, example Czech keymap is QWERTZ I'm used to QWERTY but only want to switch the Y , y and Z , z keys. You can more easily make your own keymap by this.

Also you can't have multiple user keymaps like R5. Where are opened keymaps opened? I see only current

Editing the keymap is an unimplemented feature (yet).

There is a post on the Haiku website ​http://haiku-os.org/community/forum/keymapping_ideas :-)

I think Zeta took some code from Haiku for the prefs, so it would explain it doesn't have that feature.
