Problems with Swedish symbols layer drawing in wierd mod+number combinations

[Wesztman]

Hi there!

First of, thanks for this great tool, my old drawio images were always outdated.. :p

I'm having some issues trying to render the keymap for this repo https://github.com/Wesztman/zmk-config

I have a Swedish symbols layer as seen in https://github.com/Wesztman/zmk-config/blob/master/config/brain.keymap but when parsed and drawn I do not get neither the symbol (which I can understand), but I don't get the "id" of the key either, like "SE_DQT" or "SE_HASH". Instead I get Sft+2 and other combinations as you can see in the readme.

Do you have any tips on how I could fix this? :)

Cheers
Carl

Hey, this is because parsing uses #include "swe_keys.h" to expand the SE_* keycodes so they are observed as their underlying combinations, like LS(N1) for SE_EXCL.

There is a workaround for this, though I probably need to document it somewhere better:

• Make keymap-drawer ignore the header include by wrapping it within a preprocessor directive:

  #ifndef KEYMAP_DRAWER
  #include "swe_keys.h"
  #endif

• Make keymap-drawer remove the SE_ prefix from keycodes so that it treats SE_EXCL as EXCL, etc. by putting below in a config file (default path is keymap_drawer.config.yaml):

  parse_config:
    zmk_remove_keycode_prefix: ["SE_"]

The first approach worked like a charm! 😄 Thanks!

Is there any way to vizualize the tap-dance on my leftmost-lefthand-thumb key? 😘

And also another question, is there any way to do "partial" mapping of certain keys?

When I do not map Å,Ä,Ö i get the symbols

But if I add mapping, I get the "words" instead of symbols 🤔

Best way is to add an entry to parse_config.raw_binding_map in your config.

Unfortunately the default behavior is that if you specify zmk_keycode_map, it overrides the default list completely. I might change certain config fields to extend by default instead, but for now you can copy paste the default mapping entries alongside your new ones: https://github.com/caksoylar/keymap-drawer/blob/main/keymap_drawer/config.py#L420-L485

Thanks for taking your time to answer 🥰

Here is the final config, for anyone else coming here :) https://github.com/Wesztman/zmk-config/blob/master/keymap_drawer.config.yaml
