Tutorial 3b - autoShift

Some multi-layer keyboards have a symbols layer that writes symbols without using the shift key:

~ ! @ # $ % ^ & * () _ {} | < > : ?

The keybrd library does this by automatically sending a MODIFIERKEY_SHIFT scancode.

Two keybrd classes use AutoShift:

  • Code_ScS
  • Code_ScNS

The keybrd_3b_autoShift.ino sketch explains the AutoShift feature. It will run on the basic breadboard keyboard described in tutorial_1_breadboard_keyboard.md. After reading the sketch you too will be able to automatically shifted characters.
