sporadic wrong mappings
Closed this issue ยท 10 comments
Hi !
Thanks everybody for this extension.
Sounds crazy but without it Atom is useless for so many people, that would immediately switch to another editor.. ๐ฑ
Anyway sometimes (or twice daily ๐ ) I have wrong mappings for characters like | and [, or was it { ?...
Maybe after switching to another application or resuming from sleep/hibernation.
(Using fr_CH keyboard with latest stable Debian and Atom version, currently 1.5.3)
When it happens, I must select the "Packages -> Keyboard Localization -> Open Keymap Generator" menu option.
Here I must type the character in the input labelled "Capture Key-Events from input and create Key-Mappings".
Then I must go back to the editor tab without closing the Keymap Generator tab, and the character is mapped properly again. ๐
Hope since a long time that it can be fixed very soon
I will try to add generated mappings to fr_CH.json when it happens again
I experienced the samething (locale fr_CA) with character { while expecting \ with the mapping altgr + ~ (the key at the left of number 1). Latest release of the package as per Atom: 1.4.15
I opened the Keymap-Generator and the mapping was temporarly fixed until the tab is closed.
Adding the mapping to fr_CH.json solved the recurrency problem ... (until the next Keymap-Generator update :-) )
I still experience the problem (same version as before with latest Atom).
When I press ctrl + left-alt + ~
, it prints the expected character \
. But it should be the same using right-alt + ~
which prints {
. I don't think I had this behavior before.
If the Keymap-Generator is opened, the problem does not occur and everything is normal as usual.
This is the captured mapping when tested in the Keymap-Generator (which prints \
as it should from altgr + ~
):
{
"222": {
"alted": 92
}
}
Tx for the plugin!
might be related: virtual AltGr
using de_DE i sometimes get a virtual AltGr added. so e beomes โฌ, m to ยต and 3 to ยณ.... haven't seen much of a pattern yet (though just now it reverted to normal after tabbing out an in again).
Thanks for a great plugin!
I seem to have the same issue as doktordirk with a Swedish keyboard and it seems to be random. Issues with pipes and spaces too. For me, it just started when I updated Atom to the latest release (I guess. Might have been some plugin updates too).
fyi: it's constistent now: starts with any AltGr sign and stops when tabbing out/in
Thanks man! Seems to solve it for me too!
