cfg_samples/home-row-mod-prior-idle.kbd not working

[cntrmx]

I found this new recently added feature and a home row example config. After building and "installing" fresh binary on Linux and using the example config I get no errors, but HRMs are not working. Is this feature not working on Linux yet or did I miss something?

Thanks for testing the main branch. This should be working on all OS as it's not OS-dependent. Please reproduce while executing with the --debug flag and share the logs.

Okay, I was too focused on the meta key that didn't respond that I neglected the other modifiers. Turns out the mods work as expected but only with keys defined in defhands which expains why A+1 (Meta+1) didn't work. F+; outputs ":", but F+' outputs f'. Is this intended?

[jtroo]

The default behaviour of a timeout is to resolve to the tap action instead of the hold action. This is "intended" but re-reviewing this decision, doesn't seem correct since it's inconsistent with other tap-hold default timeout behaviours. You can change it by adding (timeout hold) in the tap-hold options for now.

So how do I make the modifiers work with keys that are not defined in defhands? Because, once I declared numbers in the defhands, ; + 1 (M+1) worked. Is there a way to make undefined keys work with tap-hold-opposite-hand?

Apologies, using (tap-hold-opposite-hand 150 a lmet (unknown-hand hold)) works for undefined defhands keys.
