How Can I make it for DVORAK keyboard layout ? #211

Open MrBns opened 2 months ago

MrBns commented 2 months ago

I am a DVORAK keyboard layout typist.

in windows, Avro works in difference way.. But in Linux, it seems every Ibus layout is fixed. it directly map unicode to key of keyboard.
But in Windows any keyboard layout works with avro.

When I type in windows in avro mode with dv layout it works perfectly fine without any issues . but in ibus-avro I saw the layout is fixed to QWERTY.

Now my intention is to Make a ibus-avro-dv. But I am getting lakings of learning resource. Could anyone help me to go step by step to create layout using ibus ?

Edit /usr/share/ibus/component/ibus-avro.xml file as root/sudo. After <layout>us</layout> line add a new line <layout_variant>dvq-simplified</layout_variant>. Restart. There's a low chance this'll work.
