What OS keyboard layout? What have you tried?

Thanks a lot for helping me :). I am not sure what you mean with OS keyboard layout, but I tried it both on Mac and Windows. I also tried the standart US layout and german layout. I tried the key combinations listed in on the layout picture (https://pcper.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/quick-reference-guide1.jpg). When looking on chordmanager, there aren't any chords listed, could that be an issue? And if yes, do you know from where I can get a good library?

When did you receive your charachorder?

I assume recently, right?

#

Also, I just meant what keyboard the OS was set to

#

The charachorder works best if it's set to QWERTY OS layout

#

The symbols in the default layout on qwerty are very similar to where they are on a normal keyboard

Are you able to type, for example, the number 1?

#

Using numshift and r?

#

! Is then just shift and numshift and r

#

So ( is similar, it's shift and numshift and m

correct

#

#

thanks a lot 🙂

🙂

#

No problem

#

Okay, so now

#

For the chord question

#

You are looking on what website?

#

I assume launchpad chordmanager?

yes

#

You will want to try it out on iq-eq.com

#

Unfortunately the docs haven't updated just yet

#

But you actually have the new CCOS

#

And it's not compatible with the old website just yet, so try to go to iq-eq.com, click connect in top right

#

And check out that chord manager page and see if you can get your chord list to populate

#

Make sure to use Google chrome

#

Or other browser that supports serial api

GG @left gust, you just advanced to level 1!

loud harbor Mar 4, 2023, 1:17 PM

#

OH duh

#

https://www.iq-eq.io/#/

dot i/o

Web site created using create-snowpack-app

#

.io

#

whoops 😄

#

under library just use the "populate table" after you have connected

#

you can then export it too, will download as a csv if you want to explore it that way

#

yes, this works thank you a lot 🙂

#

btw a good tip while using chord manager generally speaking is to not change what window you are on and not to use the keyboard while it is still processing things

#

anyway, welcome to the fam

#

I will mark this post as resolved for now
