Key rebinding assumes QWERTY #682
Comments
Which OS are you on? |
This is on macOS 10.12.6. |
Ah yeah, this is a winit bug. There's a few other issues like this.. I should really consolidate. Will follow up with a canonical issue to follow once that happens. |
That's really strange.. are you also on macOS? |
I suspect this might be what causes the issue I dont have the full context for to understand this, but it seems to be sending a single ESC which seems like it would cause the behaviour we are seeing. EDIT: I verified it by removing those lines and it does indeed solve the issue. |
Following on this while the above solves a lot of the issues with my layout, some keys still don't work. For example
In a similar vain
For these cases neither |
Closing in favor of #458. |
I use the Colemak keyboard layout, and I was very very confused why my key bindings weren't correct - turns out that you have to specify the bindings using the location of the QWERTY key, not via their actual place in the layout. This seems like a semi-known issue (see this comment), but it is pretty confusing.
The main pain point here is that I can't share my config files with people who use other layouts (be it QWERTY, AZERTY, QWERTZ or Dworak!).
I would love if alacritty would let us specify key bindings by what real key they send, not by what their location on a QWERTY layout is.
