Tipro programming with Umlauts

[Icarium]

I can confirm the problem with putting oe in the second layer that is mentioned here: http://deskthority.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=813

Has anybody figured out a workaround or some way to update the controller version or something?

You can only program key codes. You can program it to send more than one. So it should be possible to send a keycpde squence that causes "oe" to appear instead of ö.

Well, sure, this has nothing to do with umlauts actually.
I put the ;/: key at the y/Y key in layer2.
Now I can type y/Y using just shift.
I can type ; using the layout switching key, but I can not type : using shift+layout_switch because that does not work....
It might also be a KRO problem. I have also put F4 on the second layer and now pressing alt+layerswitch+thespecialF4key somehow gets the alt key stuck.
And right now I have the Tipro and Windows disagree about whether capslock is on or off.

It all seems a bit...fucked. :p

Then again the Tipro usually beeps when there is a KRO problem. I don't get this. :/

You can desolder the buzzer hi hi

Hm...that won't really solve the problem. :p
But as I said, it doesn't beep, so I guess it is NOT a KRO problem.
