jceaserHere is one more person, who likes to use planck and preonic, puts ctrl on capslock, and thinks numpad is a total waste, but not a Mac user. You got a good looking keyboard, sir.
I also have some relegendable keycaps but never used G20 keycaps before, how about them?
Thank you very much for info and photo, hope you have great weekends.

jceaserYour board looks a lot like a Preonic, but it has 75 keys vs the Preonic's 60 keys. Did you make it yourself?

VinSNot a Preonic, an [XD75](https://www.massdrop.com/buy/xd75-custom-mechanical-keyboard-kit) in a wooden case.
G20 are nice to the touch, but i don't feel as if my fingers really sit will on them. They are so flat you kind of slide off of them, but getting a couple of homing bumps really helped. Around here we call them the "marshmallow keys".

dvorcolNo, it's an XD75 in a wooden case, same software though. I went backwards with it, I got a 60% case with no plan, then found (by luck) that there was a orthogonal board that mostly fit it. I only have about half the screws holding the thing down but it seams to work. The board has "hot swappable" switch mounts, which I was afraid would mean the switches would wiggle out. So far it's been a great board, I have way more keys then I know what do do with.

jceaserSorry for my mistake, I edited my original comment.
I was typing with my preonic and was thinking about my plan to make another planck, so maybe I confused at that time.
And thank you very much for your detailed explanation of marshmallow keys. I'll try them someday.
Your keyboard and comment inspired me a lot, very helpful.
(I send a apology to dvorcol, too. Sorry for making you confuse. Have great weekends.)

ALT V2 not detected with Drop Keyboard Configurator
Hi, This is my first non-mac keyboard. I was under the impression that this would work out of box with with mac desktop however I am having issues getting the ALT V2 detected with the keyboard configurator software. The keyboard is plugged in and powered on. Apologies if this is very basic or if I have used incorrect language describing my issue, I don't have experience with this. Thank you

How does the Drop ALT v1 scan for keypresses?
Does it check the entire matrix at once? Are there zones scanned sequentially left-to-right? etc. I'm interested in the delay time between two simultaneously pressed keys (e.g. if C and V are pressed at the same time, is V registered 5ms after C? Are they registered at the same time?) I need this info to help with frame perfect input in specific games

From Art to Artisan
Before launching any product, there are many designs, concepts, and ideas that pass between teams before arriving at a final design which makes its way to your computer screen and, eventually, desk. This is no more true than when considering possibly the most "art"-forward aspect of the mechanical keyboard hobby—artisan keycaps. It should be obvious that a lot of planning and artistry goes into crafting these literal pieces of art. We don't often get a chance to see behind the curtain, though. So, let's take a closer look at the upcoming Drop + Dwarf Factory Lord of the Rings Rohan Artisan Keycaps. Before any resin is spilled, Middle Earth (the entity that licenses the Lord of the Rings IP) needs to approve the concepts based on concept art provided by Dwarf Factory. We connect with DF to coordinate on the topic and subject matter—in this particular case, additional Rohan-themed designs—to be sure that the concepts match with overall direction, whether that be pairing up with a...

My Kingdom for Smooth ABS SA Keycaps
Every time I build a new keyboard, I go hunting for keycaps. And every time I go hunting, it eventually devolves into a desperate search for SA (or equivalent) profile keycaps with a smooth finish. SA is the ultimate profile, IMHO, and they're relatively hard to come by. Signature Plastics, which is where a lot of SA sets come from like the T0mb3ry SA Carbon set (they might actually hold the trademark on the SA profile if I'm not mistaken), is reportedly going through some management/ownership struggles (last I heard, they're looking for new ownership), and along with apparently the rest of the industry, they seem to be neglecting this superior keycap profile in their own stocks. If you order direct from them, they have a couple themed sets in stock (maybe), but generally you can have any color you want, as long as it's black or white. Drop carries a fair number of MT3 profile sets, which are very similar to SA. But just like SP's SA-P profile, they're made with a different...

DCX vs DCD vs DCL - Drop’s Keycap Profiles Explained
We’ve covered the basics of keycap profiles before—spherical/cylindrical, sculpted/uniform, etc. One thing that has come up more and more over the years as we’ve expanded our portfolio of offerings here at Drop is the distinction between some of our similar profiles. Specifically, what is the actual difference between DCX, DCD, and DCL? Cylindrical Profiles To recap the previous article on the topic, one of the most basic ways to separate various keycap profiles is by shape (cylindrical, spherical, or flat). DCX, DCD, and DCL are all cylindrical profiles. The most famous cylindrical profile is Cherry profile, as defined by the original manufacturer of the keycaps—Cherry. GMK now owns those tools, and as such, only they can technically claim to produce “Cherry” profile keycaps. Similar keycap profiles are often called Cherry profile colloquially, but are in actuality slightly different. For the sake of not splitting hairs, all of the cylindrical profiles discussed here are...

QMK supports fixed and dynamic macros, those are really cool for programing. Also mouse support so you can get access to the mouse button which I find useful for positioning the mouse button and then rapidly hitting the mouse button from the keyboard every time a popup opens while running something in a loop. As for stock keyboards, once you plug it in to the computer, you can go to the keyboard preference panel and move around the command and option keys, also dump the caps lock in favor of control.
