Also RGB Control key cap to replace Caps Lock

Maybe also a blue Enter, for me it would pe perfect like that

1) I think so, yes
2) We'll see

As of now this is enough to get a quote. With some numbers at hand we can review some kits
3) I agree the § is too wide, I don't like it. I'll work on the real/final legends while the GB is actually going
4) I couldn't find one that I really liked. I'll try harder.

Whops. I don't know why they slipped inside... I have to double check, I hope I didn't invert upper with lower case.

don't push too hard
I like blue Enter, too. Like I said, I want to see the prices with the current setup. We can later fine-tune.

Should there be an double-height icon enter and num lock for the numpad in one of the icon keysets (the icon pro perhaps)?
Also I guess the second legend on the numpad (Pos1, Page Up etc.) is out to have a monolegend numerical set (which I can totally live with)?

we already have numlock icon, but we definitely miss the vertical enter.

side printed maybe? I don't know.

Don't do it! (They look cleaner without, for a single legend numrow.)

Muirium fears for his single legend board
I also would not add those legends, although it defeats the purpose of num lock a bit (but who uses the navigation level on the num pad anyways).

I do, believe it or not…

They come in handy on one of these. But generally speaking, you are quite right.

I think ergo kit should be blank.

Nah. Row-less DSA really shines for exactly this sort of thing. Round 5 is full of blank ergo kits, but they don't really appeal to me.
Posted: 09 Mar 2014, 15:16
by matt3o
(almost) all kits are available in blank flavor. Remember in dye sub all kits born blank

The blue 3 is wrong (the one with the section mark).
Posted: 09 Mar 2014, 15:31
by matt3o
how is it wrong?

Is the third legend ³ instead of 3?
Posted: 09 Mar 2014, 15:34
by 7bit
It is rounded.
Posted: 09 Mar 2014, 15:34

Yeah, looks like a different font.

To add support for a danish layout. These keys should be added:
<>\
´`|
½§
Btw, for those still interested, I have posted close up pictures of the the two Amiga A keys on my Amiga 2000 Keyboard. The pictures can be found in the
Wiki.

It is still Gotham. ³ is different from 3 (which I agree).

Just saw this thread. Looking good! I'll take anything with a Norwegian set. (you can hardly get a keyboard with Norwegian legends in Norway these days

)

As Freddy Mercury said : "I want it all, Yeahyeah ! And I want it now." XD
It's nicer everyday ! I really like the numpad signs ÷ and × imho it's a plue-value, add some "chic"
Some missing : the !§ key for fr-azerty in the intl de,it,fr kit and Ê for bépo in the intl mono. You may add « and » in mono for Portuguese, bépo and Muirium's obscure purpose (
Citroën fanboy?

)
Finally, I would like to have a 1unit AltGr in the ISO kit or a meta key (edit : as you did in the icon pro with the double arrow) and another dot key in mono or a comma in numpad.
Some double in mono and intl : there is ^ in both kits, moreover ¨ : and ' ´ may be merged. But I think you did it on purpose since it depends on font (especially vertical/curved apostrophe and acute)
Something funny : The ergodox 2units keys are what I use on my Tipro except the blank is a Tab key

thanks for your report. I'll apply your suggestions.
I don't know if I should keep both ´ and `. In Italian they differs quite a bit (even though few use them correctly), but I agree that we could live with just one of them (`).

It's just a suggestion to eventually cut price of this kit if you'll think it is too high after SP names it. It's only one key and a 1unit one so you may try to see if it worth keeping it (some purist may want it after all)
