[Feature request] Ability to set to alternate NEO-2 Keyboard Layouts: NeoQwertz and Bone #4

Open irfanns opened 11 months ago

irfanns commented 11 months ago

Dear Maintainers,

thank you very much for this app, which is very amazing in regards on writing in an Android phone or tablet with an external keyboard attached. However, I am mainly using Bone keyboard layout in desktop, and have switched my external keyboard key-labels into that layout. May I ask if there's a way to switch the Layer 1 and Layer 2 a little bit to accomplish this? And I believe NeoQwertz would be awesome too for people who want to stay in normal QWERTZ yet have the ability to have Layer 3-5 that you have done very well.

Thank you very much.

Hello, sorry for the late reply and thank you for your interest in this app.

In my opinion this could be done quite easily but I write code for Android so rarely (last time April 2021), it will take me some time to set everything up again and the app publishing... o.O

I think all it needs is to create a new layout like this one https://github.com/Viatorus/neo2-external-keyboard/blob/main/app/src/main/res/raw/keyboard_layout_neo2.kcm and add it here https://github.com/Viatorus/neo2-external-keyboard/blob/main/app/src/main/res/xml/keyboard_layouts.xml

Dear @irfanns,

have you implemented the Bone layout yet? If yes could you please share the repository or the APK file? That would be a great help.

Thank you very much :)
