MiToThis is great. Though I'm a little confused about the Fn Icon symbol. Is the Fn icon '>*' or '>-' ? I'm guessing it should be '>*' if I read it correctly and '>-' is for hack/code/win. Correct me if im wrong.

ViraYour observation is spot on!
Fn should be >* but I'm keeping this symbol exlusive for Tsangan just so non-standard users have a little something to differentiate their weird layouts. Technically, since >_ can have multiple meanings, the user can pretend that it means hack/code/win and Fn as well! I left this detail on purpose, for people to use their imagination and assemble >_ to whatever they want.
You read the convetion perfectly, so perfectly that you managed to catch this subtle change I did, thanks a lot for the attention!

MiToAwesome! But will it be impossible to have dvorak/colemark on centered alphanumeric?

MiToI think the Betas with centered with uppercase font. However, where is the modifier set for the betas?

Hag.comThis keycap set has uniform profile, so Colemak/Dvorak is already covered!

Jan 18, 2017

jkaos92Icon modifiers are the made modifiers for Betas!

MiToRight, but the homing kit covers only the Alphas style - possible to just include the extra 6 homing keys with each Alphas/Betas kit?

MiToAwesome to watch this set evolve! I'm a 100% ergodox user, and I'll be sad if I miss out on the accent colors completely - with that in mind, here's a quick mock borrowing a few additional keys from the Bauhaus Icon & Ortho Icon sets that I would personally use in my bottom row and thumb clusters.

Also two 1.5U blanks, and `/?`, `\|` have been rotated 90deg.

Jan 19, 2017

bendrexlWill look into that, I'll make a single homing kit covering the Alphas + Betas.

Jan 19, 2017

bendrexlThanks for the mockup, will rotate the legends and add the "' hope it helps!

MiTo@MiTo This looks great!
If I need a 1U Ctrl, Alt, and Fn in color, my only option will be to buy the Ortholinear set? It seems kinda pricey for folks with White Fox and similar keyboard layouts. I'm curious to know why 1U Ctrl and Alt were excluded from the Bauhaus set. Thanks!

djensen47Hey I appreciate your question!
The Bauhaus has 3 x 1u in orange, it was a decision I had to make, because this set has so many kits and so many options... People all have different keyboards and making colorful/icons/text/etc available for everyone is impossible logistics-wise.
If you buy the Bauhaus you'll have *some* colors to work with, but not all, compromises had to be made.
Hope you understand!

MiToThe change is super nice! But I still have a few in mind regarding Ortho Kit. 1. I think adding color like this is too unbalanced. The reason colored mod in Ortho Kit never happened because the other side of the bottom mod used by some people to place arrows, thus making the overall color imbalance. Even if people don't use arrow on bottom right, another available modifiers are still gray so my take is still give the accent only on low raise but keep the modifiers doubled for people who don't use arrow. 2. If color modifiers will still be there; Ctrl and Alt in the same color. Whatever convention you use this is looks wrong. Just do like Bauhaus.

JebbraWill fix the Alt, thanks for the heads up!

MiToSo if i don't like the "icon" modifier kit there is nothing with the same font of the Betas?

MiToI think something went unnoticed, something is missing in the Betas+Icon modifier kit In the next image i used "text modifier" only to make it clear but but let's assume that the grey is the icon modifier, those 2 sets are still missing something to be a 104 ansi layout (the basic layout), see image.
Even if you get ICON MODIFIER, you are still missing 6 keys: - 4x 1u keys - 2x 2u keys

Can I buy extra keycap clear plastic cases?

When I ordered the Artifact Bloom keycaps and the LoTR keycaps they both came with simple, not costly looking, clear plastic snap cases for 6 rows of keycaps. In the former's case there were 2 for all the caps of a set. Some other sets I've ordered like the Oblotzky SA Oblivion V2 were delivered in plastic bags (and actually they have small molding marks on the home row that aren't as nice as the cheaper Artifact Bloom Ocean Wave). I would love to be able to buy 2, 4, 8 or more of these boxes. I'm imagining they're a lot cheaper than plexiglass boxes that are heavier and rattle more. Is there any way to get some from Drop? Or any other source?

k and g keys not working

So I got my Sense75 keyboard today. It all looked great until i plugged it in where I found out that my g and k keys do not work. I've tried cleaning the area, switching switches and a couple other stuff. Has this happened to anyone else, and how did you fix it?
