missing the Alt-gr key combinations. Standard is to use blue for them, which is given to another key, and there's other errors
Alt-Gr combinations are given in the upper-right in Blue. unfortunately, this keyboard leaves out all but one Alt-Gr combination (and gives it on the wrong key!), instead implying that Alt-Gr does what is in fact done by a dead key. Plus, two dead keys are missing. A and E are going to be very crowded, but not much we can do if we want to show what the keyboard actually does. Adam Cuerden talk 16:09, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
What it should have:
TOP ROW
- Top left key: Add (in blue) the Alt-Gr combination °. It is not the same as the ° in green, as the one in green is a dead key, and this one is not. It may be underlined. (as per the Italian I° abbreviation)
- 4: Alt-Gr 4 is labelled as giving the € symbol. In fact, this should be Alt-Gr 5.
- 7890: Alt-Gr combinations are { [ ] } respectively.
- Ö (right of 7890) Alt-Gr is \
SECOND ROW:
- Alt-gr Q is @
- Alt-gr E is € again.
- É, Ý, Ú, Í, and Ó need recoloured and moved downwards: they are not Alt-Gr combinations, but dead-key ones.
- Ê Û, Î, and Ô (no circumflexed Y) are created by a deadkey in the third row. Another colour will need to be chosen for them. Also È Ù Ì Ò by ANOTHER missing deadkey, so yet another colour.
- The rightmost key in this row, (' ?), has an Alt-Gr of ~.
THIRD ROW:
- Â and À is missing from the A key, see above.
- The key two keys right of L is written almost completely wrong. The dead key ´ is all that is shown (and will need recoloured to match the new colour of É, etc.) shift-´ gives ' (single quote), and Alt-Gr ´ gives the dead key ^ which combines to give Â Ê Î Ô Û
- The far right key (+ *) has yet another dead key: Alt-Gr gives ` which combines as À È Ì Ò Ù
FOURTH ROW
- Far left key, (< >): Alt-Gr gives the pipe, |
- Alt-Gr M gives µ
As you can see, this is pretty much as wrong as it could be. Adam Cuerden talk 16:07, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
