# Combos Combos allow you to assign special functionality to combinations of key presses. The two default behaviors are: * Chords: match keys in random order, all pressed within 50ms. * Sequences: match keys in order, pressed within 1s of one another. You can define combos to listen to any valid KMK key, even internal or functional keys, like HoldTap. When using internal KMK keys, be aware that the order of modules matters. The result of a combo is another key being pressed/released; if the desired action isn't covered by KMK keys: create your own with `make_key` and attach corresponding handlers. Combos may overlap, i.e. share match keys amongst each other. The optional arguments `timeout` and `per_key_timeout` define the time window within which the match has to happen and wether the timeout is renewed after each key press, respectively. These can be customized for every combo individually. ## Keycodes |New Keycode |Description | |------------|----------------------------------------------------| |`KC.LEADER` | a dummy / convenience key for leader key sequences | ## Example Code ```python from kmk.keys import KC, make_key from kmk.modules.combos import Combos, Chord, Sequence combos = Combos() keyboard.modules.append(combos) make_key( names=('MYKEY',), on_press=lambda: print('I pressed MYKEY'), ) combos.combos = [ Chord((KC.A, KC.B), KC.LSFT) Chord((KC.A, KC.B, KC.C), KC.LALT) Sequence((KC.LEADER, KC.A, KC.B), KC.C) Sequence((KC.E, KC.F) KC.MYKEY, timeout=500, per_key_timeout=False) ] ```
