Firstly, i LOVE this Wootings Two HE!!
I want to set a MOD TAP. Tap for X, fully depress for Y.
I want X to be the special charactors to be the !"£$%$^&*() and the fully depress to be the 1234567890. All in line with one another. So: 1! 2" 3£ etc etc.

I cant find the option for any of the numerical special charactors. Why?!

because that is not how the keys work. when you press a key it sends some code to the system and the system then interprets that as "oh, that's a 1". The characters that are typically sitting on the numbers need the code of shift to work. only shift + "1" makes "!". there is no code for "!"

this might by my ignorance here of coding but:

1 - is that a block from the PC code or wootings code?
2 - Is it possible for a workaround? (aka X = 1, Y = shift+1) ?

The Wooting software cannot natively map the special characters (!, @, etc.) to a single tap because these characters rely on the Shift modifier.

#

I think you have to setup mod tap or something in the wooting software

A keyboard sends raw keycodes. Key56, key23 and so on.

Your OS dictates what these ultimately turn into based on the keyboard language chosen. If your language doesn't have a particular symbol, you'll have to use some manner of macro to produce them via ALT codes.

so in lamens terms, does that mean that i can Mod Tap something to get it to work?

You can always download autohotkey and do it through that

Essentially... you'd need a customised a new Windows OS keyboard Layout and then the KB would recognise it.
