Layer 3 and above

Hi,

it's currently not possible to use CAPSLOCK as a mod3 key right?

Cheers

No, this should be possible. Doesn't work for you?

Caps Lock locks layer 3 for me. I press and release once, every key I type turns into a layer 3 symbol, I press and release again, it's back to layer 1. I'm using a Logitech K380 over Bluetooth.

So layer 3 works but different than expected.

Same thing happening for me both on a compact bluetooth keyboard and a normal full-sized German layout USB keyboard.

It seems the CapsLock event isn't correctly overwritten or something like that. On pressing capslock, the capslock light on the keyboard activates as well. Pressing both shift keys at once doesn't do anything on the other hand, while a quick look at the codes seems to indicate that it should.

My guess would be that something changed in some Android version about the handling of the keyboard states or something and that broke the app? I don't have any clue about how keyboard stuff works on Android though. I'll look into the code and try to find out what might be the problem again some time when I'm more awake and have time. Any ideas or tips where to start would be appreciated, though!

Hello,
I am sorry for the late reply.

I only have one wireless keyboard available where I tested it all. It is a ThinkPad TrackPoint Keyboard II (German Layout).
CapsLock and Shift work as expected (Android 13).

Did you configure your Physical keyboard correctly and selected Neo2 External Keyboard as input method?

E.g. if I don't select Neo2 External Keyboard as input method, CapsLock and Shift doesn't work either.

Oh wow, that helped! It works like a charm now. I didn't know I was supposed to use the app as on-screen keyboard, I just configured it as layout under physical keyboard. After turning on showing the on-screen keyboar while the physical keyboard is connected, enabling Neo2 as input method under on-screen keyboards and then switched the input method, it works. Thank you!

Thank you all!! I can confirm that it works very well when the virtual keyboard is set to the Neo2 External Keyobard. Unfortunately Termux is the only app that still shows that unwanted behaviour, as if Neo2 is not selected.
