I’ve a Macbook Air with the everyday US keyboard structure printed within the keys, however I wish to use the keyboard as if it have been a Spanish keyboard as a result of I am accustomed to that structure and since I do not take a look at the keys whereas typing I do not thoughts the structure not matching the characters really printed within the keys.
The structure of my keyboard seems to be precisely like this:
I’ve configured the keyboard to behave as if it have been an Spanish one, by going to Preferences > Keyboard > Enter Sources and including the “Español – ISO” structure.
That works superb, largely, with one exception: The important thing on the left of the highest “1” key (with the printed characters “`~”) would not behave the identical as the important thing in the identical place in a Spanish keyboard, even after configuring the “Español – ISO” structure.
As an alternative of the important thing being “ºª”, which is the important thing on the left of “1” within the Spanish keyboard, it behaves as a “<>≤” key. Why is that?
So, since that is taking place, I can not use these symbols (“ºª”), of which I miss the backslash probably the most. How can I get the backslash with this structure with out having to change to US keyboard simply to get the backslash character (beneath the “delete” key), after which switching again to Spanish structure? (which is a cumbersome course of simply to get a single character every time).
Edit: I believe the issue is that the Spanish keyboard really has an additional key that the US keyboard lacks (please observe that the Left Shift secret’s shorter within the Spanish keyboard to accomodate the additional “<>≤” key).
Plainly, for some cause, the important thing on the left of the “1” key is definitely moved (together with its keycode) right down to the proper of the Left Shift key in European keyboards, and a very new key with a brand new key code replaces the important thing on the left of the “1” (within the Spanish keyboard it’s “ºª”, whereas in different European languages it is a completely different set of symbols however the important thing code stays the identical), so with a US keyboard I can not actually have the total Spanish structure due to the lacking key.
