I have had a PCB manufactured before a couple of times (Was a couple of simple boards with a MCU that wirelessly controlled Somfy shades for my smart home setup) but never a flexable one so that will be a new adventure. Not sure what I'd use as a controller, got a few options there. Reason I was co...

Had a thought for a mini DIY project relating to this project and as something to accompany this keyboard once it's finished. I notice that you sell keys, barrels, flippers and springs for your model F boards. Any idea how difficult it'd be to make myself a 4x6 macropad using these parts? I suspect...

Another Vial question: I got the split ortho which uses numlock for layer switching. Does anyone know how to setup a momentary layer switch (numlock on when pressing down, off on release)? Maybe the answer is already in the thread but couldn't find it on a quick skim through the last few pages. Edit...

Any news on ortholinear keyboard shipping? Haven't gotten any shipping notification yet, so just wondering if you are slowly sending them out or if my order is stuck or something.

Thanks for the insight. I guess with most solutions maintaining cross compatibility and portability will we difficult. Personally I'm leaning to a software solution. Few years back I made an input configuration software that should be adaptable to handle two keyboards as one, with plenty of configur...

How quickly is the numlock LED transmitted? Could you send short codes with it? Consider the following: instead of toggling numlock for the layers, you use it to send a code for fn up/down that leaves numlock in its original state. If it was on it stays on and vice versa, only the pattern matters. I...

Hi Ellipse, is the split F15 convertible to ISO? I think I've read some of the other models support both layout options. Actually I'm interested in both the split keyboards but would only want to buy one, is it legal to put my best offer for both keyboards and write in the comment section "if both o...

That's just more of a reason to put it on the front page. First time I heard about the irc was from scott.
Having it more visible would bring more people not only to the irc, but give people more of a reason to come to DT in the first place.
"Ask the experts in real time" and what not.

I wonder how hard it would be to embed that irc on the main page. Should essentially do the same thing.

Thanks for the feedback guys. As I said, I'm only a novice when it comes to the editor, so my skills are lacking. And even if I could improve this mod if I took the time to study how to use the editor properly, I don't visit this site often enough to care too much about the details. Maybe one day. g...

I find the L trac has too few buttons, and the ball isn't exposed enough, plus seems to be quite high friction.
In terms of design the Logitech Marble FX looks really good, but it's still not perfect, and discontinued anyway.

To be honest I've decided that a RollerMouse is a bad option for me. It's pretty much like a mouse you cannot lift up, meanwhile capacitive devises are too inaccurate. While they do have their uses in normal office and browsing environment, it's too restrictive. At the same time none of the trackbal...

Hmm, I thought it could be done in the start up menu, but apparently not. You could try to remove the mouse softwares from the start up and replace with a batch file, not uninstall, just remove the shortcut from the start up folder, in Windows. Then put a batch file in the folder; Open a new text do...

Alright, thanks. I think the currently offered RollerMice are a little too wide for my needs anyway. I'll have to look for something else, maybe a drawpad kind of system.

Probably drivers conflicting. Try to change the startup order of the mouse divers and see if it makes a difference.

From the image it looks a lot like the original 2001 version.
How does the RollerMouse feel, can you compare it to a trackball?
Would you say it is accurate enough for detailed work?

I think Politica-thority needs more forum topics. Preferably related to computer peripherals, hence the 'Desk'thority name. I like the way GH has many topics to discuss about. This way people are more encouraged to partake and discuss those topics, than completely non-related things. Besides off-top...

If I was an American I'd probably would vote for Trup just for the stirrup it would cause in the currently shitty and corrupt politics. Maybe it would beat some sense into other voters. As a European definitely Sanders. So far each time the US has had a republican president the rest of the world has...

Change all the "#076880" to "#FFFFFF" in the code.

Dunno if I'm blind(ed by the brightness), or there actually is no dark theme for us light sensitive creatures... I took matters in my own hand and made a simple css dark theme mod. It changes more than colors though. I find it annoying how the vanilla theme only uses 50% of the screen, so I made thi...
