Definitely the most helpful video I have seen. Would you mind providing a basic example to follow for a macro whereby you program a single key for multiple keystrokes. Such as when pressing a key normally it outputs ALT TAB R I'm trying to work follow how I would write this a code and then how I would assign it to the any key I create. Thanks in advance.
So, how can I switch from layer 0 to layer 1 temporarily by press (after input a number or symbol it comes back to layer 0), but turn on permanently by press many times? Thanks
@@MechMerlin Well. It's like multiple function in one key. tap is one function, hold is another function, and tap many times is another function. I checked QMK and not much I can find there.
your video series is extremely helpful! I have some experience in soldering and Arduino but no where near pro I started watching you videos yesterday and today I got my first ever keyboard #Cantor up and running! the only thing is my TO1 didn't work, i'm gonna ignore it for now 😂😂
Hi @MechMerlin. Do you know if it is possible to activate/toggle a layer and at the same time, light up the layer keys with front side RGBs? This means that if you have a nav cluster (for example), that can show up in a particular colour to help you to know where you are and what keys are on the layer? Or do I have to put in some C customisation code to enable this functionality?
The beauty of QMK is that it's all open source so yes you can absolutely do all this, but like you said it will require some coding on your part. The good thing is that this is a very common request, so there are plenty of examples within the code base that utilize this.
I can't seem to get the TT layer switch to work properly. The double tap does not toggle the layers at all. It otherwise functions while holding like MO, though there's this tiny lag for the key I enter to show up when MO is always crisply responsive. I'm working with an OKLB Planck v7. Anyone know what's going on?

is there anyway to set it so that when you tap a key it has a certain output but when you hold down a key it has a differene output, that is not the mod key combos, ex when you tap "." it types a "." but when you hold down "." it types a "!"
Thank you so much for the information. I have a question I cant seem to figure out. How can I bind key (S) + (Space) to one key? Basically, I want to bind two keys unto one key. This is for gaming purposes btw.
Is there a way to type characters such as ä, ü, ö, Ä, Ü, Ö, and ß without switching to a German keyboard layout? When you use a keyboard layout like the UK's, there isn't a key or keycode for any of these letters. My current solution is to create a macro that holds the 'Alt' key and types the Unicode. However, this doesn't work in many programs because they use that key combination.
Hey Merlin going to be flashing a BM60 pcb in the next month, my first time, i see you already added it in QMK configurator, my question is in layer 1 there is only RGB adjustments, with no Backlight keys adjustments, is that something that can just be added to that key list as the BM60 has both per key RGB and under glow? Thanks in advanced!
TT only allows momentary/toggling of a single layer, correct? i.e. I could not hold for momentary layer 1 and tap twice to toggle layer 2. Would I need Tap Dance for that instead?
Hey I’m trying to program two enter keys because I messed up while building but one of them is still the /| button. I’ve trying to fix it and make my layout and I flashed it but it still doesn’t work. Could I send you my layout possibly so you could take a look at my populated layer ?

Hi @MechMerlin, thanks for the informative videos on QMK, I've learned a lot. But I have a question on how to set certain keys such as ç or other specific keys (in my case Belgian French keys but could be Nordic etc.)? Since these keys are not in the basic set on QMK and I don't see anyting on dead keys (pressing ^ but it doesn't show anything until you press e for example sou you get ê). I'm trying to make a custom keymap in which I have & ( ) and others as my first layer, the numers as second layer (by pressing shift i get 1 instead of normally pressing i will get &), and as last a third layer on the same key for @ on that key, this third layer by pressing Left Alt. I hope you understand my problem. Thanks in advance for your time and help. Looking forward to your next video, i really enjoy the weekly group buy streams. Greets from Belgium!
All the specific language stuff is handled by your OS. The keyboard just spits out keycodes that the OS interprets into the language you have chosen. Most things in the keyboard world are ANSI US so you can look up the conversions between that and the language you have chosen.
@@MechMerlin I have a similar question about this. I want to have the ANSI US layout with the following changes: remap French letters to the number keys. The numbers are accessible if you toggle caps lock on. Regular behaviour of the keys when you hold down shift Is this possible? If so, can it be done with QMK? With something else?
I was wondering if it’s possible to move the Fn key? It’s the 3. Key from the bottom right side, but I want to move it to the outside on the bottom right of the keyboard.
So which key code would I use if I wanted to hold down my function key to use my “F” keys (F1-12) but if I tapped it I could toggle a layer, however if I tap it again it will return to the original layer? Basically a 2 function key, but I want to be able to return to my original layer upon pressing it again.
That's what I use actually, I ended up having to code it up myself. You can see my code here: github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/blob/master/users/mechmerlin/mechmerlin.c
is there a way to have a hold FN/MO and if you tap it its the left arrow key?. Annepro2/obins' default layout does this and I got really use to it but now that im using qmk on a DZ60 I would like to emulate it if I can.
@@MechMerlin I have figured out to do tap directional keys for Right shift, right control, right windows, but I can't seem to figure out how to get tap left directional key and hold MO/Fn button. do you know how I could go about doing that, I went through everything on the quantum tab and can't seem to figure it out.
Hey man - got everything working as I'd hoped so thank you for that! Only problem is (and i've had this since starting my keyboard up), the command key won't work. I'm on a mac and can't for the life of me figure out why. I've tried some keyboard visualisation software and its not registering being pressed at all. Would really appreciate some assistance.
Can you verify that it is configured probably on your keymap? Also can you verify that if you program it with let's say the letter A, B or C, the key itself still registers?
@@MechMerlin I believe its configured properly! I'll give it a go with different letters when I'm home - didn't think to try that. Thank you so much for the fast response! I'll let you know in an hour or so!
@@MechMerlin Oh my god. Took the switch out and realised it was due to a completely bent in pin. Feel so stupid haha. So pleased to have sorted it now though. I would've checked that if it were any other key other than command as I thought it was a windows/mac/gui toggle thing. Damn. Suppose you should always start with the basics. Thank you for your help mate. Appreciate it.
@@JudeCornish Question for you: How did you set it to the command key? I set the key I wanted to the Windows/OS key in the configurator assuming it will work as command on a Mac, but I've been unable to test it yet because the Mac is my computer at work and the keyboard isn't finished yet.
I have configured a layout using QMK Configurator. And I want to add some Unicode symbols. As I see, the only way to do that is to download .c file and edit it manually. However, when I choose download keymap.c only option, it gives me .json file. How can I get .c file?
@MechMerlin, do you know how to do tap dance and one shot layer using the website? Or do we need to code it by ourself? (P.S. I want to do like hold LAlt to interact as LAlt, but when LAlt is tapped it goes to layer 1 and then i can press my number keys that act as F1-F12 keys. And also advanced feature like tap LAlt, hold LAlt, tap 4 = ALT + F4). Btw thanks for a great video :)

@@MechMerlin so if I load a default ANSI layout for my XD84 via QMK and flash it, then change the language in Windows to Hungarian, it's gonna give me a Hungarian layout? I'm very lost, none of the guides I've found are helpful, my board is on the way and it looks like I won't be able to use it as I can't map any Hungarian keys via QMK Configurator... not to mention that our symbols are all in different places.
@@MechMerlin OS is set to Hungarian, I'm using it with an Anne Pro 2 right now. I'm only missing the í and Í letters (they're an AltGr combo now, on an ISO setup they would be next to LShift). The Anne Pro is still set to the layout it came with. it's just that my éáőúűóüö keys kinda rearrange themselves around the ANSI Enter... so I'm hoping this would work?
Several reasons actually. Accents are determined by the language you choose on your OS whereas what you see on the configurator is what QMK uses. Your OS interprets these keycodes and gives you the accent you, the other reason is that the GUI isn't built that way. I suppose we could do it like we do the MO ones but it may warrant more discussion with the team.
Hey man, thank you for your turorials, they're awesome ! I would like to be sure about something though, can I use 4 Mo keys per layer on the bottom right ? 1.25 Mo [1] - 1.25 Mo [2] - 1.25 Mo [3] - 1.25 Mo [4] ^ I would have this set up on every layer (4 plus the layer 0)
@@-._.-._.-._.-._.-._.- possibly lol. But yeah like all our storage mediums, you're limited by the amount of flash storage or EEPROM present on the chip. For your typical atmega32u4 present on over 80% of QMK powered boards, you've got 1k of EEPROM and 32k flash if I remember correctly.

Hey man, thank you for your turorials, they're awesome !
I would like to be sure about something though, can I use 4 Mo keys per layer on the bottom right ?
1.25 Mo [1] - 1.25 Mo [2] - 1.25 Mo [3] - 1.25 Mo [4]
^ I would have this set up on every layer (4 plus the layer 0)
you can use up to 16 different layers!
@@MechMerlin Wow that's greaat ! Is there a limit to pcb's memory though ? Like I could not bind 800 keys right ?
@@-._.-._.-._.-._.-._.- possibly lol. But yeah like all our storage mediums, you're limited by the amount of flash storage or EEPROM present on the chip. For your typical atmega32u4 present on over 80% of QMK powered boards, you've got 1k of EEPROM and 32k flash if I remember correctly.
Which discord? 🤔
either mine or QMK.
Trying to compile Ergodox Infinity firmware, but no luck so far...
"quantum/visualizer/visualizer.mk:77: lib/ugfx/gfx.mk: No such file or directory"
That's odd, must be a QMK Configurator issue. Please file a bug.
@@MechMerlin No need anymore for support... I finally got it flashed perfectly how I wanted with I:C Kiibohd configurator
How the heck do I switch my entire keyboard to hiragana?
You have to enable the keyboard layout/language in your OS.
