# a layout for the Mitosis
|
||||
|
||||
- Emphasis on momentary modifiers, all usable from either hand, arranged symmetrically, but left/right distinguishable by the OS.
|
||||
I place left- and right-versions of Shift, GUI ("Super"), and Alt ("Meta"), and Henkan/Muhenkan (which I plan to overload for "Hyper").
|
||||
|
||||
I'm going for a [Space Cadet](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space-cadet_keyboard) aesthetic;
|
||||
I want a keyboard that can (even just in theory) make use of all the bucky bits my operating system can support.
|
||||
|
||||
- Red key and Blue key momentary-enable (like a shift key) one of three layers:
|
||||
|
||||
- Red: Symbols layer
|
||||
- Blue: Numbers layer
|
||||
- "Purple" (both Red and Blue): Functions layer
|
||||
|
||||
This tri-state layer mechanism is a bit similar to Planck and Preonic's "Raise," "Lower," and "Adjust."
|
||||
|
||||
- The base layer is QWERTY.
|
||||
[Colemak][], [Dvorak][], and [Workman][] may be toggled using `Red`+`Blue`+`Z`.
|
||||
When you find the one you like, save it with `Shift`+`Red`+`Blue`+`Z`.
|
||||
|
||||
- Minimize hand travel, so as not to lose orientation with home row.
|
||||
|
||||
- `?` and `!` are moved to take the place of `<` and `>`.
|
||||
Rationale: unmodded and shifted keys should be for prose, while symbols useful for programming should be colocated on their own layer.
|
||||
|
||||
- Key positions chosen for mnemonics.
|
||||
For example, you can distinguish between alphanumeric numerals and keypad numerals, but they occupy the same key positions.
|
||||
|
||||
## Layout Images
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Base layer. Notes:
|
||||
- customized comma and period, which have exclamation point and question mark on their shift layer.
|
||||
- tap right-shift for underscore, tap left-shift for tab.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Red layer. Intended for common navigation and programming symbols. Notes:
|
||||
- symmetric layout of paired braces/brackets/slashes for easier memorization
|
||||
- arrows placed directly on home position
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Blue layer. Intended for "number pad." Notes:
|
||||
- Keycodes generated for numbers, enter key, and mathematical symbols are from the alphanumeric keys, not keypad.
|
||||
This way they are not influenced by the state of Num Lock.
|
||||
If you want to send the keypad equivalents, just press Blue as well to access keypad numbers in the same positions in the Purple layer.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Purple (Red+Blue) layer. Intended for "true keypad" and various functions. Notes:
|
||||
- Numbers on this layer send Keypad codes, so the result will be affected by the state of Num Lock.
|
||||
- "Switch Layout" toggles the alphabet keys between QWERTY, Colemak, Dvorak, and Workman.
|
||||
Shift + "Switch Layout" stores the currently selected alphabet layout in eeprom, so the selection persists across reboots and computers.
|
||||
- Page Up / Page Down / Home / End are placed on corresponding arrow keys.

## Indicators
|
||||
|
||||
- When Red layer is active, the RGB indicator turns red.
|
||||
- When Blue layer is active, the RGB indicator turns blue.
|
||||
- When Purple layer is active, the RGB indicator turns purple.
|
||||
- When the Workman layer is active, the RGB indicator turns green.
|
||||
Currently, this means that activating the Red layer while using the Workman layout will make the indicator show yellow. (red + green.)
|
||||
- The Num Lock status is shown on the Pro Micro tx LED.
|
||||
- If you attach a speaker to PC6 (pin 5) and compile with AUDIO_ENABLE=yes, music will be played at startup, when switching default layers, and when saving the default layer.
|
||||
|
||||
## Variants
|
||||
|
||||
Some additional compile-time options for this layout are available by editing rules.mk or compiling like so:
|
||||
|
||||
Normal compilation:
|
||||
|
||||
```make mitosis:datagrok```
|
||||
|
||||
Swap Space onto bottom thumb row: swaps Red/Backspace/Space/Red with Blue/Shift/Shift/Blue:
|
||||
|
||||
```make mitosis:datagrok MITOSIS_DATAGROK_BOTTOMSPACE=yes```
|
||||
|
||||
Lower baud UART. Useful when using an 8Mhz pro micro; corresponding changes required in wireless firmware. See rules.mk for details.
|
||||
|
||||
```make mitosis:datagrok MITOSIS_DATAGROK_SLOWUART=yes```
|
||||
|
||||
## Design notes
|
||||
|
||||
### Workman layout
|
||||
|
||||
- I'm learning a new physical key placement, so I might as well go all-out and use an optimal non-QWERTY layout.
|
||||
Bonus: it's easy to switch back to QWERTY on a traditional row-staggered keyboard.
|
||||
The designer of the Mitosis had [a similar experience](https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/66588f/wireless_split_qmk_mitosis/dgfr22q/).
|
||||
|
||||
- I like the way Workman feels and some of its advantages over Colemak.
|
||||
Unfortunately, it was designed using a weighting system based on a standard
|
||||
row-staggered keyboard so is probably not as optimal as one could achieve
|
||||
on an ergonomic board like the Mitosis. Maybe run an optimizer routine after I
|
||||
determine good values for key difficulty on the Mitosis.
|
||||
|
||||
### 8Mhz Pro Micro
|
||||
|
||||
- I (used to) use a 3.3v Pro Micro clocked at 8Mhz rather than the 5v 16Mhz specified in the Mitosis design.
|
||||
That can't communicate with the connected wireless module at the default speed of 1M baud.
|
||||
The next fastest baudrate that works without errors is 250k baud.
|
||||
So if you want to do the same:
|
||||
|
||||
- Set the Pro Micro clock and baud rate correctly in `rules.mk`:
|
||||
```
|
||||
F_CPU = 800000
|
||||
MITOSIS_DATAGROK_SLOWUART = yes
|
||||
```
|
||||
- Configure the receiver's wireless module to communicate at 250k baud in `main.c`. See https://github.com/reversebias/mitosis/pull/10
|
||||
```
|
||||
- UART_BAUDRATE_BAUDRATE_Baud1M
|
||||
+ UART_BAUDRATE_BAUDRATE_Baud250000
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Layout mnemonics
|
||||
|
||||
- Paired programming symbols (braces, brackets, parentheses) are arranged symmetrically in the Red layer.
|
||||
|
||||
- Arrow keys are in the home position on the Red layer.
|
||||
|
||||
- Blue+Arrows = PgUp/PgDn/Home/End, which is intuitive for me and similar to what is done on Apple and some Dell keyboards.
|
||||
|
||||
- The number pad: I placed the ten-key number pad on the Blue layer.
|
||||
However, this would do the wrong thing when Num Lock was not enabled.
|
||||
Rather than attempt to manage the state of Num Lock, I arranged the normal number keys in a ten-key layout on the Blue layer instead.
|
||||
If you explicitly want the keypad keys, they're in the same position on the Red+Blue layer.
|
||||
|
||||
- Number-pad add, subtract, multiply, and divide are located on the same keys as alphanumeric plus, dash, asterisk, and slash, respectively.
|
||||
|
||||
- The Function-keys are arranged to mimic the order of the ten-key pad.
|
||||
|
||||
- Enter is now in a more qwerty-familiar location, and may be activated with one hand.
|
||||
Numpad Enter is in the same position for mnemonics.
|
||||
|
||||
- Why do I dislike [snake\_case](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snake_case) (`__variable_names_that_use_underscores_`)?
|
||||
Maybe because it's hard to type all those underscores requiring the shift key?
|
||||
Hypothesis: I'll be less annoyed by snake case by placing `_` at an unmodded position, right near the `space` key.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Changelog
|
||||
|
||||
### Current
|
||||
|
||||
- Discard "intentionally difficult backspace" idea.
|
||||
Tab returns to left-shift.
|
||||
Del returns to Red+Backspace
|
||||
- "High Profile mode:" Swap Red/Backspace/Space/Red with Blue/Shift/Shift/Blue (placing space on lower thumb keys) using `MITOSIS_DATAGROK_BOTTOMSPACE=yes` when compiling.
|
||||
- Move Print Screen / Scroll Lock / Pause to pinky column on Blue layer.
|
||||
- Let's try using TT instead of MO so we can e.g. lock-on the keypad.
|
||||
- We still use MO for first modifier, so e.g. Red + tapping Blue will lock purple.
|
||||
So far it feels a bit janky, we'll see.
|
||||
- One key `KC_LAYO` to cycle through available base layers instead of a dedicated key for each;
|
||||
Shift + `KC_LAYO` stores current base layer selection in eeprom so it comes back after disconnecting or a reset.
|
||||
- Added Colemak and Dvorak as default layers that may be selected.
|
||||
- Set UART to 250kbaud with make argument `MITOSIS_DATAGROK_SLOWUART=yes`, for use with 8Mhz Pro Micros.
|
||||
- Display Num Lock status on tx LED
|
||||
|
||||
### 0.6.60
|
||||
|
||||
- Experiment: no-modifier underscore on right shift key.
|
||||
- New combined numbers + keypad arrangement.
|
||||
No more worrying about Num Lock key.
|
||||
- Move F-keys to left board to make room.
|
||||
Calling them "the Numbers layer" and "the Functions layer" is now less accurate but the arrangement feels better.
|
||||
- Audio working!
|
||||
- Move Tab and Space to upper thumb row.
|
||||
I discarded the high-profile acrylic case from my Mitosis.
|
||||
With a low-profile case, it's easier to hit the upper row of thumb keys.
|
||||
- Discard all my `#defines` for "Meta", "Super", and "Hyper".
|
||||
I can call them that without making the code confusing to others.
|
||||
- Move Backspace to Red+A. I shouldn't be using it much anyway.
|
||||
This means Tab and Shift might as well be separate keys again.
|
||||
- Distribute paired symbols symmetrically across boards like `\<{([ ])}>/`.
|
||||
Opening-symbols on the right hand was a failed experiment.
|
||||
- Change default back to target a 16Mhz/5v Pro Micro.
|
||||
I damaged the 8Mhz Pro Micro I was using so now I'm back to using a 16mhz Pro Micro again.
|
||||
|
||||
### 0.6.1
|
||||
|
||||
- Place Tab on Shift without a modifier. We use it frequently for autocomplete.
|
||||
- Make QWERTY the default layout. So more people can try it out. My customized Workman is easily toggled-on.
|
||||
- Don't use redundant `#define` for `KC_TRNS`
|
||||
- Place Num Lock somewhere. Otherwise (if it gets turned off) we can't type any numbers!
|
||||
- Add some media keys
|
||||
|
||||
### 0.5.155
|
||||
|
||||
- Enable use with my 3.3v Pro Micro
|
||||
- Add a toggle-able QWERTY layer
|
||||
- Golf down the LED-setting code
|
||||
- Place `!` and `?` on `Shift`+`,` and `Shift`+`.`.
|
||||
- Distribute paired symbols symmetrically across boards like `\)}]> <[{(/`
|
||||
|
||||
### 0.5.129
|
||||
|
||||
- A modified Workman variant for Mitosis
|
||||
- Arrows in home position, modifier + Arrow = PgUp/PgDn/Home/End
|
||||
- Load all paired symbols onto angle-bracket keys.
|
||||
|
||||
### Abandoned ideas
|
||||
|
||||
- Abandoned: intentionally-difficult backspace.
|
||||
"Backspace is one of the keys I most dislike on a QWERTY keyboard because it moves me away from homerow and I need to use it so often.
|
||||
Rather than make it easier to strike, I want to discourage myself from using it and train myself to type more accurately."
|
||||
|
||||
- Many other people like an easy-to-reach backspace.
|
||||
- Many other split-spacebar ergo boards place backspace at the thumbs.
|
||||
- I can still train myself to type well with it in an easy location.
|
||||
- I couldn't think of anything really better to put opposite space.
|
||||
|
||||
- Abandoned: pile all brackets onto one pair of keys.
|
||||
"Since QWERTY and Workman keep angle brackets together, place other enclosing symbols on the same keys."
|
||||
|
||||
- I didn't like having to pick the right modifier to get the right flavor of bracket.
|
||||
Instead, now, one modifier activates a symbols layer where all brackets are easily accessible.
|
||||
|
||||
- Abandoned: chorded Enter without proper chording detection
|
||||
|
||||
- I tried to make Red+Space = Enter with the intention that I could hit both with my thumb.
|
||||
That didn't work well; I always trigger space first when mashing the keys
|
||||
simultaneously. ~~This might not continue to be true if I change the angle
|
||||
at which I strike the keys e.g. with a neoprene base or a wrist support.~~
|
||||
Even with a wrist rest or low-profile, this is hard to do with one hand.
|
||||
Need to adjust the firmware to understand chorded thumb keys.
|
||||
|
||||
## To do
|
||||
|
||||
- Ctrl+'+' doesn't seem to work; fix.
|
||||
- **Shared Layouts.**
|
||||
Figure out how to make use of QMK's common `layouts/`
|
||||
- **Chorded Combos.**
|
||||
Since the thumb keys are arranged such that it's easy to smash pairs of keys with just one thumb, figure out how to enable chording.
|
||||
For example, a single-finger Shift+Space or Red+Space that doesn't do the wrong thing if Space happens to trigger first.
|
||||
- Improve **LED indications** (may require modding bluetooth firmware):
|
||||
- Num Lock status
|
||||
- Is any board nonresponsive (which one?)
|
||||
- Does either board have a low battery?
|
||||
- **Num Lock management.**
|
||||
Num lock currently occupies prime real estate, but I never use it except to fix it when it's wrong.
|
||||
Do any of my applications use it?
|
||||
Should I have the firmware ensure it is set how I want it?
|
||||
Maybe cause it to be momentary active with Blue?
|
||||
See [@drashna's comment](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/2366#issuecomment-404951953) for code to force it always-on, which I don't know if I want.
|
||||
- ~~Store default layer in eeprom?~~
|
||||
- Allow "!? on ,." to be easily toggled-off.
|
||||
- Modularize "!? on ,." so it can be easily used on any QMK keyboard. (about half done)
|
||||
- See if the henkan/muhenkan placement is at all useful for Japanese speakers,
|
||||
or abuse different keysyms for Left/Right Hyper. (Original space cadet used
|
||||
scancodes 145/175. 145 is LANG2, 175 is "reserved" in USB HID spec.)
|
||||
- Implement "layer lock" key
|
||||
- Feature parity with popular boards e.g. Planck?
|
||||
- Layers for ~~Dvorak, Coleman,~~ Plover
|
||||
- More music and midi stuff
|
||||
- Macros?
|
||||
- Improve tri-layer behavior
|
||||
- Find out what `update_tri_layer_state` offers that my simple layers arrangement lacks.
|
||||
- ~~Find a better location for Caps Lock, PrintScr/SysRq, Scroll Lock, Pause/Break,~~.
|
||||
Placed on Blue layer. Caps will be Shift+"Layer Lock," once I get that working.
|
||||
- ~~Figure out where to place non-numpad numbers so we don't need num lock turned on to type them?~~
|
||||
- ~~Add Insert, PrintScr, Pause/Break~~
|
||||
- ~~Make QWERTY base layer for people who customize layout in software?~~
|
||||
I default to QWERTY now.
|
||||
- ~~Mod a buzzer onto my receiver and enable tones~~ Easy and works!
