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_3_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.

Exercises

1) Modify the keybrd_3_autoShift_annotated sketch to make a 3-layer keyboard with a default layer and two Code_LayerHold objects.
