Is it possible to display the key-names laid out like your keyboard layout? #278

So I want the keys and descriptions arranged as the keys are physically arranged on my keyboard. As an example, if I was using querty, near the top left would be the key and description for Q. I actually use Colemak so I would need it to correspond to that.

Is this possible?

If not, I wouldn't mind trying to contribute something. Though it would be first time I've contributed any elisp so be warned.

If you’re just talking about sorting them a particular way then yes this is a matter of writing the appropriate sorting function.

However doing something more intense like ensuring that the a key always shows up in the same place is probably beyond which-key’s capabilities for now

Thanks justbur. If I make something I'll try to remember to let you know.
