MiToThis is great. Though I'm a little confused about the Fn Icon symbol. Is the Fn icon '>*' or '>-' ? I'm guessing it should be '>*' if I read it correctly and '>-' is for hack/code/win. Correct me if im wrong.

ViraYour observation is spot on!
Fn should be >* but I'm keeping this symbol exlusive for Tsangan just so non-standard users have a little something to differentiate their weird layouts. Technically, since >_ can have multiple meanings, the user can pretend that it means hack/code/win and Fn as well! I left this detail on purpose, for people to use their imagination and assemble >_ to whatever they want.
You read the convetion perfectly, so perfectly that you managed to catch this subtle change I did, thanks a lot for the attention!

MiToI think the Betas with centered with uppercase font. However, where is the modifier set for the betas?

Hag.comThis keycap set has uniform profile, so Colemak/Dvorak is already covered!

MiToRight, but the homing kit covers only the Alphas style - possible to just include the extra 6 homing keys with each Alphas/Betas kit?

MiToAwesome to watch this set evolve! I'm a 100% ergodox user, and I'll be sad if I miss out on the accent colors completely - with that in mind, here's a quick mock borrowing a few additional keys from the Bauhaus Icon & Ortho Icon sets that I would personally use in my bottom row and thumb clusters.

Also two 1.5U blanks, and `/?`, `\|` have been rotated 90deg.

bendrexlWill look into that, I'll make a single homing kit covering the Alphas + Betas.

MiTo@MiTo This looks great!
If I need a 1U Ctrl, Alt, and Fn in color, my only option will be to buy the Ortholinear set? It seems kinda pricey for folks with White Fox and similar keyboard layouts. I'm curious to know why 1U Ctrl and Alt were excluded from the Bauhaus set. Thanks!

djensen47Hey I appreciate your question!
The Bauhaus has 3 x 1u in orange, it was a decision I had to make, because this set has so many kits and so many options... People all have different keyboards and making colorful/icons/text/etc available for everyone is impossible logistics-wise.
If you buy the Bauhaus you'll have *some* colors to work with, but not all, compromises had to be made.
Hope you understand!

MiToThe change is super nice! But I still have a few in mind regarding Ortho Kit. 1. I think adding color like this is too unbalanced. The reason colored mod in Ortho Kit never happened because the other side of the bottom mod used by some people to place arrows, thus making the overall color imbalance. Even if people don't use arrow on bottom right, another available modifiers are still gray so my take is still give the accent only on low raise but keep the modifiers doubled for people who don't use arrow. 2. If color modifiers will still be there; Ctrl and Alt in the same color. Whatever convention you use this is looks wrong. Just do like Bauhaus.

MiToSo if i don't like the "icon" modifier kit there is nothing with the same font of the Betas?

MiToI think something went unnoticed, something is missing in the Betas+Icon modifier kit In the next image i used "text modifier" only to make it clear but but let's assume that the grey is the icon modifier, those 2 sets are still missing something to be a 104 ansi layout (the basic layout), see image.
Even if you get ICON MODIFIER, you are still missing 6 keys: - 4x 1u keys - 2x 2u keys
