show nicer shifted keys

6 votes

currenty, shifted key is shown as the original key wrapped in lsft. this is fine for telling it's automatically appling shift, but can be slighly confusing when looking at a layout trying to tell what is what. i suggest it would only show the resulting character on the key, and when hovered it would show the actual key wrapped in lsft

...shouldn't those keycodes at the end of the basic tab be mapping to `KC_LEFT_CURLY_BRACE` and `KC_RIGHT_CURLY_BRACE` instead?

Also the tooltips for those buttons just shows `LSFT(kc)` not `LSFT(KC_LBRC)` like i'd expect them to if that's what they're doing. The tooltips for LSFT assigned to the keymap also don't change based on what's inside them.
