Minifan layout

Compiled for: Qwerty

This file details the compile version #define BASE_QWERTY__DEF_BASE, BASE_QWERTY__ALT_BASE. This is a Qwerty layout.

Dual layout combination with Qwerty Base Arrow

⚠ If you also compile base_qwerty_basearrow, the key for /? on _NSY layer in that base_qwerty_basearrow layout, will be replicated in this Qwerty layout on the _NSY layer. It will displace the key RCTL_T ( KC_GRV ). Right Control, unless tapped for ‛`’ or tapped with shift for ‛~’ ➡ becomes /? (slash/questionmark).

The reason for this is that when you switch from one or the other Qwerty variation (with or without arrows on ‛Base’ layer), it will likely be confusing to type ‛/?’ on that key in one version of Qwerty, and suddenly get a ‛`~’ in the other. The reason it is not in the normal position on ‛Qwerty Base Arrow’, is because it gets displaced by ‛Up Arrow’.

You will likely switch from the Base Arrow variation to the regular version, due to a need for the row of keys displaced by the arrow cluster, or the other way around to get Base access to the arrows, rather than a need for this side effect: ‛/?’ being substituted for ‛`~’.

This means you will loose _NSY layer access to ‛`’, in both versions of Qwerty. You will have to use the key for ‛`~’ on the _BON layer, which is an uncluttered version of this key (it repeats). It also means that you have two keys toward ‛/?’ in standard Qwerty: the default position for Qwerty, and this additional one to harmonize with ‛Qwerty Base Arrow’.

This harmonization can be disabled in , with QWERTY_BASEARROW_HARMONIZE.

 ₃) 'South paw' hardware configuration. Configurable, default shown.
 ₄) 'Arrow' hardware configuration  Configurable, default shown.
 ₃ ₄) There are two more optional hardware keys, to make it easier to compile for
      a 12x12x12x11 or 12x12x12x12 layouts.
 ₅) Left Shift when pressed with another key. Medium long: to toggle _PAD. Long: toggle _MOV.
 ₆) Right shift when pressed with another key. medium long: to toggle _FUN. Long: toggle _RAR.

Remarks: The left modifiers have a slight delay in combination with an outside pointer device (mouse, stylus). It seems this will be difficult to fix, because it is spread over two devices. To avoid the ±0.2 second delay, activate a layer where the modifiers are direct (_PAD), using the layer toggle on left shift.

The two keys with ';' (Del;_ACC, Right;_RAR) do not auto-repeat on double tap, like QMK normal layer-tap keys. There is an uncluttered Delete on _PAD, an uncluttered Right arrow on the _MOV layer.

Holding both _DEF_NSY keys left and right of the "split space bar" (enter, space) results in layer _DRA.

Holding either one of the just above mentioned _DEF_NSY layer keys (<3 and 3>), with the _ACC layer key (on <2) results in layer _BON.

 Layer _..._NSY (Numbers and SYmbols). This fits the above Qwerty layer _DEF_BASE
