# A Basic Contra Layout The *default* layout currently (as of Mar 19, 2018) has a lot of components from Planck's default layout and is not very suitable for a basic Contra board. This basic layout is developed from Planck's default layout but has removed the parts that's irrelevant to a Contra board. My other keyboard is a HHKB and I don't use `Tab` or `Esc` key that much and hence the unusual placements for those keys. ## QWERTY (Normal) Layer ``` ,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------. | ` | Q | W | E | R | T | Y | U | I | O | P | Bksp | |------+------+------+------+------+-------------+------+------+------+------+------| | Ctrl | A | S | D | F | G | H | J | K | L | ; | ' | |------+------+------+------+------+------|------+------+------+------+------+------| | Shift| Z | X | C | V | B | N | M | , | . | / |Enter | |------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------| | Esc | Tab | Alt | GUI |Lower | Space |Raise | Left |Right | Up |Down | `-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------' ``` ## Colemak Layer Switch from `Adjust` layer. ``` ,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------. | ` | Q | W | F | P | G | J | L | U | Y | ; | Bksp | |------+------+------+------+------+-------------+------+------+------+------+------| | Ctrl | A | R | S | T | D | H | N | E | I | O | ' | |------+------+------+------+------+------|------+------+------+------+------+------| | Shift| Z | X | C | V | B | K | M | , | . | / |Enter | |------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------| | Esc | Tab | Alt | GUI |Lower | Space |Raise | Left |Right | Up |Down | `-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------' ``` ## Lower ``` ,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------. | ~ | ! | @ | # | $ | % | ^ | & | * | ( | ) | Bksp | |------+------+------+------+------+-------------+------+------+------+------+------| | Del | F1 | F2 | F3 | F4 | F5 | F6 | _ | + | { | } | | | |------+------+------+------+------+------|------+------+------+------+------+------| | | F7 | F8 | F9 | F10 | F11 | F12 |ISO ~ |ISO | | Home | End | | |------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------| | | | | | | | | Next | Vol- | Vol+ | Play | `-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------' ``` ## Raise ``` ,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------. | ` | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 0 | Bksp | |------+------+------+------+------+-------------+------+------+------+------+------| | Del | F1 | F2 | F3 | F4 | F5 | F6 | - | = | [ | ] | \ | |------+------+------+------+------+------|------+------+------+------+------+------| | | F7 | F8 | F9 | F10 | F11 | F12 |ISO # |ISO / |Pg Up |Pg Dn | | |------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------| | | | | | | | | Next | Vol- | Vol+ | Play | `-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------' ``` ## Adjust `AGnorm` and `AGswap` switches `alt` and `os` key on the keyboard. ``` ,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------. | | | | | | | | | | | | Del | |------+------+------+------+------+-------------+------+------+------+------+------| | | | | | |AGnorm|AGswap|Qwerty|Colemk| | | | |------+------+------+------+------+------|------+------+------+------+------+------| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------| | | | | | | | | | | | | `-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------' ```
