qmk_configurator VS vial-qmk

Handedness? Not sure what do you mean by that. I'm using the config.qmk.fm website for the key configuration

I'm using https://config.qmk.fm/ to create a firmware for Iris rev.7 including mouse keys, and then use QMK toolbox on MacOs to flash the firmware, but while everything else works in all layers, the mouse keys do not move the cursor at all. Any ideas?

How can I use https://config.qmk.fm/ to map certain specific keys such as € or @, that are not direct or available in the framework ?

"documentation": "\"This file is a QMK Configurator export. You can import this at . It can also be used directly with QMK's source code.\n\nTo setup your QMK environment check out the tutorial: \n\nYou can convert this file to a keymap.c using this command: `qmk json2c {keymap}`\n\nYou can compile this keymap using this command: `qmk compile {keymap}`\"\n",

I didn't want to really start another thread because the question I have is so similar I think. I was somehow able to use config.qmk.fm to map a really generic colemak-dh keymap, I read the qmk noob section so I looked up how to use github/git completely lost, I have the Corne 3x6 I didn't build it I purchased it secondhand so Ive been doing some research on ergonomic mapping Miryoku generally seems to be a solid choice

I'd recommend you jump on QMK configurator, select the Charybdis of desired size, and start making your layers 😉

My keyboard was working fine prior to flashing. I have a solderable dz60 (ATMEGA32U4). I tried to flash it with firmware downloaded from config.qmk.fm (selected dz60 as keyboard). It said successful on qmk toolbox, but my caps lock light is stuck on and no button presses work. The esc + plugin option to reset stopped working, so I had to take the pcb out to press the reset button. Still not working after flashing with default firmware downloaded from config.qmk.fm. I tried flashing it with dz60 via firmware, and it gets recognized in via now, but still not working. After hours of troubleshooting of it not working, I flashed it with dz60rgb_v2 just to see what happens, and then very few of the keys work after a few presses (but they're mismapped), and the caps lock light goes off. I've tried the keyboard on different devices, and on both of them it gets recognized as a keyboard, but the caps lock light is still stuck on and no presses register.

Let's suppose that the issue is the diode orientation. I'm a total QMK newbie -- how could I swap between ROW2COL and COL2ROW at the firmware level? On the QMK Github I see instructions for modifying the appropriate headers. But when I generate my config from config.qmk.fm I only get a single .hex file. Thanks again!

Probably the easiest way to do it by clicking buttons is to use config.qmk.fm.

For non-ez keyboards, a similar tool is the QMK Configurator. See this documentation page or the video tutorial for an overview.

i wish to enable several features on my corne thru vial but could not seem to make those from this link to compile - first error was about keycode then something about dynamic keymap when i had the first fixed/simplified. i'd appreciate if anyone could share their tested vial configuration files that i can use as guide.

This applies to OP as well, if you have any Keyboard @ https://github.com/vial-kb/vial-qmk/tree/vial/keyboards/keychron

You'll probably need to download the files from the GitHub repository for Vial or QMK. Depending on what you prefer and what you need. Then you'll have to learn what you need to change to set up the screens and then to edit the files. Your keyboard maker probably can provide you some files you can use. Then you'll have to compile your own HEX file. And only after that you can re-flash your keyboard and use all those amazing things you integrated into the firmware.

It looks like that's a vial keymap specifically for the rev2? I don't know whether it would make a difference, but you could try to compile from this keymap instead and see if it works?

According to this (https://github.com/vial-kb/vial-qmk/blob/vial/keyboards/bastardkb/charybdis/4x6/v2/splinky/config.h) the Vial firmware for Splinky based Charybdis is written natively using RP2040 pin names.

Think you can also port to VIAL? I am currently using the doio firmware without problems, but guessing your updates will be useful: https://github.com/vial-kb/vial-qmk/tree/vial/keyboards/doio/kb16

I've been using VIA to edit my keyboard layout, but unfortunately the software can't find my keyboard anymore (it just gets stuck on 'Searching for devices'). I think I need to reflash my keyboard. I don't have any .hex files for it with QMK toolbox, and the libra mini doesn't show up in the list of keyboards on the online QMK configurator. I do, however, have access to the files found in vial-qmk/keyboards/libra_mini/keymaps/vial (found here https://github.com/vial-kb/vial-qmk/tree/vial/keyboards/libra_mini). I've been using the vial.json file from there to change the layout up until now. How would I go about getting a .hex file, or better yet, a keymap.JSON file compatible with the online QMK configurator?
